Will hood hinges off a 1967 Beaumont fit on a 1967 GTO?

According to AMES's catalog, all A-body 64-67 use the same hood hinge.

Definitely know that 64 and 65 Chevelle/Beaumont will not interchange.

I was doing a bit of on line sleuthing and it appears that the Beaumont/Chevelle hinge does not interchange with the GTO/LeMans.

i looked at my 67 gto and compared them to a pair of 67 beaumont hinges I have....

 

not interchangeable, just like the pics I posted below, fit different to the hood.

 What roughly does he charge?  I have been told by more than one person including a supplier that the repro ones are junk.

We have your hood hinges ready, powder coated and ready to ship out via UPS tomorrow.  I just sent you a PayPal invoice for 327.00, the breakdown is as following, 50.00 for the core set of hinges, 150.00 to rebuild that core, 35.00 for the new Gm 29 coil count SS hood springs, 75.00 to powder coat them all in Chassis black, and 17.00 UPS ground charges.

this is the cost he supplied the hinges fit fantastic

After hearing about the repros it makes me glad that I bought a NOS set from Herron Chevrolet-Oldsmobile back in 1986 for my 67 Chevelle along with hood springs. They came in a sealed plastic bag from a GM parts warehouse in Woodstock Ontario. 

The springs were stiffer if the car had a "big block" hood. I went for the standard springs and my hood raises with one finger.
