It was pretty typical of a Dodge to have a longer front end then a Plymouth had. You may have to alter the rear edge of the Dodge front fenders to match up with the Plymouth wheel base.

Its an old car, a torch and a welder can put nearly anything together.

I type slow! 57 was the introduction of the unibody construction. Both 56's should be body on frame. A Dakota front end has been put under at least one of these cars, I think its story is right here on Moparts. Its not a simple job. Gene


1960 was the first year for uni-body.
