i like that. i wonder what this car was like, the engine sat really high. and the front sat really high.
The only cars I know that had trailing arms like that were Buicks but they had a enclosed drive shaft up into the 60s unless Packard had something like that with their torsion bar suspensions.
Pontiac and Olds also had trailing arms with coil springs from 1958 up for their full size cars...not exactly sure of their design or appearance tho.
I dont remember them being that long,I looked under a 49 Buick the other week and it had arms about that long.
Rear end looks very similar to my '46 Oldsmobile. Identical trailing arm set up and differential centre. Differential has a 5 on 5 bolt pattern, LH side wheel studs are LH thread. I thought the engine mounts look like old Ford FE, Galaxie 332 / 390.
the trans mount looks like a57-59 ford car mount. motor mounts do look to be y block. 35 or later front axle , olds rear . thanks for the help guys. wish I had the rest! i will try to piece together a body this winter.
