Recently, my 1985 442 sustained some front end damage in an accident 😢 As I began to look for body parts, I found a 1985 Supreme Brougham in great body shape and in good running shape for $1000. Will this car be an acceptable front end,fender,and pass. door donor? I cannot find anything definitive about their body part compatibility. Any help would be appreciated

Thanks for the info. I had thought they were compatible so I went ahead and bought the car.
Word of advice... If your relative volunteers to help pull you out of a muddy ditch with a pickup, make sure you are driving the 442, not the pickup. Their foot slipped off brake onto gas pedal,drove straight into tailgate of 72 C10, bounced off and drove headfirst into a tree in ditch on other side of the dirt road... all at full throttle. Oh well... was planning to do a full restoration of it anyway. Just starting a little sooner than I had planned.
