Technical Hollander interchange info needed

I’d like to know if the clutch linkage from a ‘56 Mercury will work on a ‘55 Ford, parts include clutch and brake pedal and equalizer bar with brackets. I have the Mercury parts but they look different than the Ford parts that I’ve looked at in pictures.

 

that's one of the things that they don't list in Hollanders, unfortunately.

 

Thank you…

 

I used the manual trans stuff out of a 56 Ranch Wagon in my 56 Montclair wagon. Everything worked OK except the trans mount didn't work.

That was in 1970.....

 

I don't think my 1965 Hollanders book was "compiled by computer techs"

 

I have Hollanders going back to the 30’s. The word ‘computer’ hadn’t been invented.
As for the question I am sure more answers from those who have done this before

 

we had paper when I worked in a junkyard....over 40 years ago

 

the way we linked inventory was...the guys working there knew what was in stock, and there was a "hot line", and when someone would ask for a part, you wanted to be the first yard to let them know you had it.

 

I've got the early 70's Hollander that was in the high school auto shop when I started teaching in 1978. I'd imagine that it was donated by a local business. It was one of those things that because it was an old book I figured would end up in the dumpster.
