Does anyone know for sure if a 1951 Canadian Pontiac 4dr has the same frame as a 1952 Canadian Pontiac 2dr? From what I've found I think they are but I want to be sure.

I think the best way would be to do some measuring and checking the body mount positions

One book of specs I have lists 2 frame sizes (wheel bases) for '51 but no measurements for '52. Most models were on a 115" WB, but there was a 120" WB as well.
The convertible has a different frame design than the rest. I would say measure center to center front/ back wheels and you should be safe if you get the same dimension.

They are mostly identical. Be sure they are Canadian Pontiac frame. US one is completely another beast.
