I have a few questions regarding the differences between the different years of 850s. specifically in regards to the body panels, hood, etc...
My beloved 850 Turbo wagon suffered some tornado damage a while back and I would like to repair or replace what needs to be done. Im constantly searching CL and local yards for parts cars. At glance it appears to me that things like hood, fender, doors are identical between all years of 850s but I recently saw a picture comparing the front end between 2 earlier model 850s and one of them looked like the headlights were taller meaning the hood looked like a slightly different shape. I suppose what Im getting at here is can I use fenders, hood, doors from any of the 850 model years?
Thanks

Would you say that '95 - '97 models should be cross compatible for body panels, hoods, fenders, and doors?
