Chevrolet, Pontiac, Oldsmobile, Cadillac, and Buick

It’s undeniable that GM has had a long and prosperous existence in the automotive world. With makes like Chevrolet, Pontiac, Oldsmobile, Cadillac, and Buick they have brought cars to market for every interest, need, and budget. Everything from economy compact cars to monstrous boat-like luxury cars to sleek and powerful muscle cars, GM has done it all. This blog is meant to bring you a quick and easy reference guide to find the body codes for cars you own, are a fan of, or are looking to buy. The 1946 to 1985 GM Body Codes cover the vast majority of classic GM cars that are in high demand.

What Other Cars Share the GM A-Body?

For example, let’s say you are looking for a 1972 Chevelle but you can’t find one or at least not a reasonable price. Are you open to another vehicle that shares that same chassis? If so, check out the 1971 to 1975 Malibu, Laguna, or Monte Carlo A-Bodies. All of these share the same chassis so they are mostly compatible with any upgrade you want on the 1972 Chevelle. Is it the exact same thing as owning that Chevelle? Nah. But it’s the next best thing.

Below you will find a grid of body codes for 1961-1975 GM Cars. For the full list of body codes download our 1946-1985 GM Car Body Codes PDF.
