A 1955 Laurentian frame will fit your 1956 Pathfinder. The only difference is the rear leaf spring shackle. The 55 has a straight shackle and the 56 and 57 shackle is curved.If you are going to install new shackle bushings you have to order the correct year. Everything else will work. The rear springs are the same all 3 years but there were 3 different springs used. Standard, heavy duty used on most station wagons, and extra heavy duty on taxi, police packages, and the 9 passenger station wagons.
Hi I'm looking for some 56 Canadian Pontiac front fender trim and was wondering if anyone had any or any leads on some. I'm in B.C. but I'm willing to have the pieces shipped to me. If anyone known's of any I'm interested. Also looking for a 56 canadian Pontiac headlight bucket.
The best hope for success on that is if you would start a wanted ad in the Pontiac Parts Wanted section on here. Many people will never see your wanted ad here in someone else's thread about a frame wanted.
