1954-1956

Looking for a convertible frame. Prefer a 98 but willing to go with an 88. I'm building this car from pieces so I can go either way.

I know the back portion would be different as buick was cool springs and Olds would be leaf. Not sure about the rest of it. The center sections should be the same but I've been told that the convertible frames are twice as thick as even a hardtop frame.

My apologies. When you said it was a convertible and you were looking for a frame I immediately thought of he top frame. My bad. Good luck on your search.
