86 IROC to 91 RS body compatability-NEED QUICK HELP

Hey everyone. I bought a 91 RS about a month ago and need a passenger door, passenger front fender, motor and tranny. I found a local 86 Iroc I am going to look at tomorrow. Can anyone tell me if the fender, door and wheels are compatible?

I looked at camaro heavens pdf catalog and I believe they are all compatible but wanted to be 100% sure before I go tomorrow.

I figured if anyone would know quickly it would be you all.

I will be also swapping the motor and tranny.

Thanks
Matt

Thanks for the response. The iroc doesnt have the stock motor so Im anticipating some difficulties with the swap. Plus it will be my first engine swap. It'll be a looong project Im sure.

thanks again.

All the body panels will bolt on fine. The '86 fender will have different ground effect holes than your '91 but you add the holes you need.

The iroc is in bad shape bady-wise, but the motor and tranny are good. My RS is in good shape body-wise and has the stock motor and tranny. I wish it was the other way around.

Thanks for all the replies guys, I appreciate. I will be on here for many years to come.
