I'm just curious if the front inner wheel wells are the same across the g-body platforms? If not which ones are the same as the monte Carlos? Tha ks in advance!

NOPE. Hadn't followed all the differences, but most are different.

If I were betting, I'd go w/Monte's, Malibu's, & Elco's being the same/similar from a search perspective.

I believe you would be correct. With the exception the 82-85 GZ Monte. They show different part numbers. Don't know what's different about them, though.

There's an NOS set of Monte/Malibu/Elco on ebay for $1,029.95 plus tax shipped from Canada. p/n 14085655 and14085656 YEEOWCH!

What year Monte? the inner's for the '78-'80 are different than '81-'88 with a cosmetic change about '84 on the drivers side.

Mines an 84, I have another pair here that appear identical but believe they are from an el Camino. Now that you mention the aesthetic difference I think I have noticed that on other cars

There might be subtle differences in the mounting of underhood items. Some had molded/formed bosses/stanchions for some stuff; some didn't.

Regals use different inner wheel wells than Monte Carlos. Even the overflow and washer fluid tanks are different.

The drivers side on my '79 Malibu have stands molded in for the washer tank to mount to. My buddy's '84 Cutlass does not. The tank mounts right to the fenderwell with no molded stands.
