Not clear what the GM P/N is for those cushions sold by Classic Industries...
here is what I orginally posted
the following is what Lewis Matkin sent to me. the pictures are mine and
I will have some more later for you as I have to check something out

Ron, this is Lewis. Please forgive me for not getting back sooner, but I
have been busy in my work for the church I serve. I checked both my
65-66 parts manual and my 67-72 parts manual. This is what I discovered:
1964-6 body mounts are p/n 3794779, w/dimentions of 1.76" w; 3.00" l;
0.92" thick, needing 8 (up & lwr same). The 67-8 p/n is 3909351 up &
lwr, 69-72 uses 3909351 as the lwr, but p/n 3946246 is the upr. No
dimentions are given for these cushions, and it seems that the frame
changed in '69. Qty's in 67-8 are 16, with 69-72 requiring 10 of each.
If you have dimentional axcess to the later cushions, these 64-66
dimentions should help you. Like you, I suspect that the 67-8 cushions
will work, but there is no superseded p/n's between the body styles. I
can tell you that years ago I bought cab mounts for my 65 and the p/n's
had superseded to the mounts for the 67-72 cabs. I hope that this info
is of some assistance in answerring this question.

the dimensions sound right. the .92" high includes the raised section
around the bolt hole.
The measurement excl the raised section is between about .73-.74" high
hope that helps
ron
if you have trouble reading this or understanding it ask
that raised section adds about .200 " to the height

no one ever reads the whole thing do they
