No, different bolt patterns IIRC..that car would have a 5 on 5 "big Chevy" bolt pattern.

Thats right, the a-bodies and the f-bodies shared the same bolt circle.

The full sized cars, the b- bodies, and the full sized two wheel drive gm trucks shared the 5 on 5 bolt circle.

Don't know if the "a" and the "f" bodies shared the same spindle/wheel bearings size, though!
