60 Fender skirt

[Skwerly62]

I have a spare fender skirt for my 60. Friend of a friend has a 64 in need of one. Don’t want to steer him wrong, will the 60 fit the 64? Thanks!

Even without a parts list, I can tell you that it will not exchange. This is a minor trim item and making a new one to match the contours of the body would just be in a day's work for the design team. There were several major body changes in those four years. Creases appeared and disappeared, everything would have been different. Sorry.

Thank you Mr Wheeler! That’s what I thought.

1960 skirt interchanges with 1959 so hold onto it!

Eric,
My memory says that's not correct.

My parts book agrees that '59 and '60 are not the same.  Different part nos. for '59 and '60, as well as different part no. for '60 Eldo and Fleetwood. And the latches are slightly different; '59 latch can be easily operated by hand while '60 needs a tool.  Not sure why they changed it; maybe to make them harder to steal?

Thanks for the hearty discussion. I went to clean it up in the blast cabinet and it was FAR from restorable. Held together with fiberglass and undercoating!
