I have just purchased a 1954 Pontiac Chieftain ( I think Canadian) and I need some knowing advice on some parts that is required for now. The car is a 2-door hardtop. Parts required are a trunk lid, a driver door and a back window glass. I know of a 1953 American Chieftain that is available for parts. The help needed is will the parts on the 1953 fit on the 1954.
does your cars taillights rise up above the quarters or are they in the rear of the car.if your car is a canadian pontiac the window will fit not sure about the american cousin,
I'll be picking up the car next week due to the drenching rain forecast here in Sask. starting tomorrow morning and going through the weekend. I'll get the pics then and post them. Thanks for the help so far. Much appreciated.
I just picked up a hood and some engine parts for my 53 Pathfinder from a place in Central Manitoba

He had couple '54 Chiefs there when we were looking around, both 4 doors, and a bunch of Chevys.
According to the Hollander Interchange Manual (only covers US models unfortunately):
Trunk Lid -> Pontiac '54 Cheif 2 & 4 dr Sdn Drivers door -> Chev '53 - '54 all 2 dr Sdn. Bus. & Club Cpe, Pontiac '53 - '54 all 2 dr Sdn Back Glass -> Chev '53 210 & Bel Air 2&4 dr Sdn, Chev '54 2&4 dr Sdn, utility, Pontiac "53 - '54 2&4 dr Sdn

Won't be needing any more help on this. Decided to go a different direction with my "64 Custom Sport. Thanks to everybody for replying. Very much appreciated.
