Does anyone know if the grille and headlight assembly for a 1966 Starfire fit a 1965 model? Thanks.

Oldsmaniac

Highly doubt it cause the front of the fenders are different and front bumper and hood and headlight bezels and even radiator support.

wmachine

No.

Google images is your friend in questions like this. Just search on "1965 Oldsmobile Starfire" and "1966 Oldsmobile Starfire" and you'll have your answer in 2 seconds. As wmachine and oldsmaniac said, the answer is no. You can see for yourself that the headlight surrounds alone are completely different. The grilles look similar with the heavy center horizontal bar and lighter horizontal bars above and below, but the very centers of the grilles with the vertical feature marking the separation of the two halves are different.


Here's a '65 front end:




and here's a '66:

on ebay pricey but says he will hear offers

Timcando

I saw that one on ebay and made him an offer he could refuse.... Guess it's time to make him a better one.

Oldsmaniac

Well if its really nice 2-250 would be my offer. And then you ask yourself if this part was produced today and you went to the dealer parts counter what would the cost be?? I guess more than he is asking....

Timcando

Up tell now I haven't spent much time on projects like this so your suggestion will help me. I'll post some pics soon

I have a grill & headlight assemblies that would be good for a daily driver / fill the void. PM me if interested. I can send pictures Thursday.
