    So my brother is looking at getting a 50 ford, but the only trailer we have is not very big. The trailer is 78'' between the fenders. I know the 50 ford has a wheel base of about 57''. I want to make sure the body will fit between the fenders.

    the track width is 57"... a wheel base of 57 will make for a REAL short, un-drivable car...

    you've got 21" of extra room... 10.5" per side... plenty.

    just make sure the trailer is heavy enough to carry a car.
