1957 Canada/US chrome interchangeability????
Permalink  

I'm looking for some help on the interchangeability of Can/US chrome.  Specifically all the chrome pieces on the front clip with the exception of the fender scrips like hood bar extensions, grill, grill wings, etc.  I think I read on a thread the hood bar is different.  Is this true?  Are the Laurentian chrome bars on the trunk the same part as the ones used on US models like the Starchief? 

Thanks.

Oops, I knew the US fenders were longer so the spear trim wouldn't swap but forgot to state that in the post.  How about everything else like the hood bar extensions, grill, grill wings, etc?

Hi Pheadrus,

 

The hood bar and hood bar extensions are different.

Grill and grill wings are the same.

I may have spares if you need some.. PM me if you need anything

 Thanks Steve.  If I restore the car I will need some items.  I have a few parts cars that haven't shown up yet so I'll keep you posted.

Thanks, Steve.
