    They are closer to a buick or pontiac. the doors are longer and the body as a whole is longer. I am trying to put on back together also. If you look in my profile you will see what i started with...Not much if you have any other questions i have ac***ulated some knowlwdge while trying to detremine what to do with what i have.
     
  3. The wheel bases are all over the place so the bodies must be unique to each brand.
    Here are some examples,
    1936 Olds- F36 (six) wb 115" L36 (eight) wb121"
    1936 Chev- FC Standard wb 109" FD/FA Master Deluxe wb 113"
    1936 Pontiac- 6BB Master Silver Streak wb 112"
    6BA Deluxe Silver Streak wb 112"
    8BA Deluxe Eight Silver Streak 116"
    1936 Buick- Series 40 Special wb 118"
    Series 60 Century wb 122"
    Series 80 Roadmaster wb 131"
    Series 90 Limited wb 138"
    Interesting if it helps or not...

    Holy Sh*t!!! You've got bigger stones than I to start with just that much... I commend you for sure.
    The reason i started this thread was to find skirts before I have to make them myself. There's a pair of 36 chevy skirts on ebay and I'm trying to figure out if they'll work.

    You might want to try for an answer on the AACA forum. Answers seem to be hit or miss.
