65 Catalina 2 door sedan measurements.
Hello PY forums,
I'm wondering if someone with a 65-66 Sedan could take a measure of A, B and C shown. Looking to compare the USA dimensions to the Canadian car. To my eye, the Sedan looks the same, and I'm wondering if the difference in the wheelbase might be the main difference in the two when it comes to the Sedan. 121" vs 119". Thanks, Mark |

Ok Mark, I'm curious. How does that compare to your Laurentian?

Thanks a Ton MisterP. Much appreciated.
Turns out...the USA sedan has the same (trim) dimensions as the CDN car. I kind of thought this to be true, as all the beltline trim shares the same part numbers cross border. One other thing of note is the 2 door HT and Sedan actually use the same door trim PN. You would think in your mind the sedan might have a slightly shorter door, but apparently not. I can't see any reason the sedan quarter skin wouldn't interchange. One more question: Does the USA sedan sit on a 121" wheelbase? I read its 121. But I don't understand how my car could be on a 119" and still have the wheels appear to center perfect in the tubs if it has the same body dimensions as a 121 car. Hmm. Thanks, Mark Last edited by mjc34; 11-01-2021 at 10:47 AM. |

Center of rear wheel to front edge of wheel well: 17”
Center of front wheel to rear edge of fender well: 17” From looking at your car, I’m going to guess that you’ll find both of those measurements to be an inch less.
