Hello
Can anyone tell me the differences of the chassis platforms between 1952 split window with the oval chassis platforms?
Thanks

the main differences are choker position (split has choker next to shifter, oval has it in dashbord)
tranny mount...split vs. oval is totally different
torsionbars (split has the short ones, oval has longer ones and open torsionbar covers
oval -55 have (almost) same chassis panels, oval pan pattern after 55' is way different
