    I ran a search and didn't find what I was looking for. I just picked up a 1948 Chevrolet Aerosedan Fleetline that might need a new frame. If it does, I was wondering what other years and models would interchange? I'm not looking to do a late model swap. I think all car frames from 1946-1948 are the same regardless of model. Can anyone confirm this? Thanks in advance.

    I am guessing that all the Chevrolets had the same frame, but think all the other GM cars had longer wheelbases.

    Sets would just need to be from a two door. Back seats in 55-57 chevys differ from 2 door to 4 door, so that may be an issue in the older cars as well.

    I have an extra '47 Chevy frame from a coupe I cut up for parts if you need it, I'm in Conroe.
     
  8. 46 thru 48 are the same as I remember. Should be an easy swap. I too, have a 48 Aero tudor. Am missing the 3 lower stainless pieces for each of the front fenders. If know of anyone that has some for sale or trade, would like to buy them. Good luck on yours!! I had one when I was in HS in the 50s. Thanx, Dave
