As far as I know, it will not. The 65 Elky is a second generation, and the 72 is third generation, which is actually longer. If you need a new frame, you'd need one from the same generation. Which for the 65 is from 64-67.
Yes, 1968-1972 had the same frames.
Yes, '68-'72 El Caminos (Gen 3) are the same body from the firewall back. Frames are the same.
yes
65 as a percentage of 72 = 100*65/72 = 90.2777...
72 x 65 = 4680
65 multiplied by 72 is 4,680.
65/72
A lot!!
they fall into groups,64 and 65 are the same.66 and67 are like each other but different from 64-5.then you have 68-72.
72-7 = 65
1968-72
Technically, yes. I believe '68-'72 will be very close. But there are always small differences. They are both A-body cars and use the same frame. Most salvage yards will have an interchange guide that should be able to help also.
