Default Cowl panel

Looking at my parts books but still cannot tell so maybe someone could help. Will the cowl panel from a 66 GP fit a 66 Catalina convertible? Is the windshield (shape) different on the convertible. I know some cars definitly are but I'm unsure about the big pontiacs.
Thanks,
Kevin

I would think that it would be the same, but have never tried it.
Why can you not tell with the parts book?
GP is model 66, Catalina is 52, Star Chief is 56 and Bonneville is 62. Body styles are 37 is a 2 dr HT, 11 is a 2dr sedan, 39 is a 4 dr ht, 69 is a 4 dr sedan, 67 is a conv, 57 is a GP HT, 35 is a 2 seat wagon and 45 is a 3 seat wagon. So if you look at your style # on your trim tag *or the 1st 5 #'s in your vin), you will see 25267
which means: 2-Pontiac (car line), 52-Catalina (model), 67-Conv (style).
I hope that this helped.

Kevin,
all 1966 B- Body Cowl panels are the same with 2 speed wipers (they overlap). Pontiac snuck out a few cars with the one speed wipers (parallel) and those cowl panels are different. Jeff
