Parts Interchange - Leaf Springs

Friend has asked, and I am trying to ascertain, whether:
(Rear) leaf springs from a 1955 Chevy will fit on/interchange with a 1954 Oldsmobile 88?

Will any other make/year leaf spring interchange?

Let me answer my own query: The answer is no.

Per Hollander, nothing interchanges. 1951 - '60 Oldsmobile used the same leaf springs.

I did find that new leaf springs are in fact available from suppliers.

Another option is to get the current springs repaired and reached at a spring shop.
