    I'm thinking the chassis will be the same, possibly the doors, but they may have different style lines. I really doubt the Fenders will be the same, they might bolt on ok, but might not line up with the hood and grill and things like the headlight bezels will be different. If you have access to it, take some pictures and measurements and start comparing. That said, a Chebbie with a Poncho front clip might be something kinda neat and different! Pontiac had some cool stainless and chrome trim.

    Back in the 50-60s the GM family cars, while similar, were not just rebadged copies like they are today.

    Of course, that's just my opinion, I could be wrong!
