That's a great price for a 1 piece trunk floor. But shipping cost is going to be a killer, especially to Canada.
Current repo's include floor, trunk floor, rear window filler panel, inside wheelhouses.
Fender and quarter panel repair sections are avail from Wolf Steel, www.alphaparts.com
I don't believe a roof panel is avail yet. It is for 66-77 tho. Maybe the 64-65 may be coming.

A solid parts car may be your best bet for floor, trunk, quarters and roof.

Here's a few pics of a 4 door rear clip being grafted into a '65 GS. Done by Paintworks in New Hampshire:

Another of their projects used the repo 64-65 rear quarter repair panels from Wolf Steel:

Kurt in California had a 4 door rear clip for sale.

I am old enough to swing both ways(inches or metric) . But I still prefer inches.

Kurt I talked to wolf steel they said they could ship quarters and other repair panels in one package. the shipping would be $200. I thought that wasn't that bad. On the US stuff I have them shipped to border town in Montana and go get them my self and bring them into Canada. It's a lot faster and cheaper.

Brought the 64 home yesterday. ITs not great but still quite a few usable parts . Know I have a roof ,trunk lid, I think quarters can be salvaged,the rear filler panel is good. The font window panel not bad.This is one time that having no front and rear glass was an advantage .Because of the glass is gone very little to no rust around windows.

I got word this morning from the dealer where I worked many moon ago that they have 4 manuals for 65 buick . Parts 59-67 ,65 body by fisher,2 service manuals. They will be a great help.

What body style is the '64?
The only exterior body parts that are different are the fenders, radiator/ core support, grille and bumper.

Excellent! They will be a big help.
Should find a Gran Sport supplement also.  That one comes up all the time.

I also scored a LT coded nailhead . It came in the same deal as the car. I t doesn't run needs to be rebuilt it also has a 400 behind it.

I have 3 service manuals that were part of the paperwork I received in my GS. ..... one is a supplement since the GS package came out 6 months after the 65 manual was on the shelves!

I'll see what I have when I get them. I have a 66 book most of the stuff would be the same?

[Loren At 65GS]

The mechanical is. I am not sure the wiring schematic is correct for a '65 GS.
The '65 GS manual does not have a wiring schematic and the Skylark is different.  I am presently making some new '65 GS engine harnesses.
I've found, what appears to be, a couple of differences between the '66 GS schematic and an actual '65 harness.

I got the manuals yesterday .  65 service manual for skylark and special,65 full size,56-67 parts for full size, 65 body by Fisher all models. I guess I am on the hunt for a GS supplemental , and a Skylark parts book.

[WkillGS]

If some of you are not aware, most of the necessary manuals are right here on this site. Go to 'The Electronic Garage' section.
The parts book there is a 1964-72 version. It's not as detailed for a '65 since some parts were already discontinued or superceded by other numbers.
If you find a '1965 only' parts book, it likely won't include GS items since the GS arrived late in the model year.

Nail Lark, I don't know if you would be interested in selling the '65 Full Size manual or not, but if you did what do you think you would sell it for???
