Need a 54 vert body

[mark22]

Hello, everyone. I blasted my car which I am restoring and I am certain the body is too far gone. I didn't do my research when I bought it, and it ended up being a bondo/fiberglass rust bucket. The even better news is I bought an entire suspension/frame/diff setup from Art Morrison and now I have no car to put this on. Does anyone have any idea how long the frame design lasted for these cars?  Was it 54-56? I really need an unfinished body/project to continue this journey. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks again

Well, certainly the 57 and up bodies are quite different, as is the chassis starting in 57.  So anything newer than 56 is definitely out.

If you can't find a decent donor 54 convertible, a 54 coupe should do nicely, I would think, as a donor.  Either a S62 or a CDV.  You should be able to find a western example of such for a fair price.
