3) Is the wheel base 109.5 inches or is it shorter?

THanks
Mike is good people!

1) same shock towers, but different lateral seperation. THe shock towers are closer to the fire wall and the hood sits higher relative to the shock towers as well. The upper shock mounts are different too.

2) all suspension is the same except for the centerlink.

3) yep, 109.5.

BTW, I have a 65 mustang and 65 ranchero in the stable if you have other questions. THe cars a really different, even though they are based on teh same 1960 falcon chassis.
