63 and 64-5-6 Panels and Suburbans

Are the drip rails and the first bit of the roof the same?
how about the rear lower corners?

I've got access to a 63 suburban shell, and my 66 Panel needs a drivers side drip rail (rusted out) and a passenger rear corner (bashed in).

Thought it might be easier to cut out the parts from the 63 shell then to try and fabricate the complex metal shapes from scratch.

Only problem is, I dont have both vehicles in the same place to compare them.

does anyone know if there were changes to the body, other than the dog legged front door/wrap around window vs. the 4-5-6 body style on Burbs and Panels?


Thanks in advance.

Danke Mucho.

I think I just saved a ton on custom fabrication... as long as the parts on the donor are not rotted out as well will have to check on it next week... then get this project going.
