I believe the 1953 is definitely different from the 51-52 which are similar if not exact. Also I think the Super and Roadmaster parts should be the same because they were built using the GM "C" body, same as the Cadillac. In 1953 the Series 40 Specials were defintiely different since they were built from the GM "B" along with Oldsmobile. I am not sure about the interchangeability of the 1951-52 moustache bars.
Good luck.

I'm not sure about the 53, but the 51 and 52 are interchangeable between the Roadmasters and Supers. The bar from the Special will not fit the Roadmaster and Super in 51 or 52.
I see these come up on eBay every once and a while.

The interchange is: 1951-52 50& 70 series. Special is different.

The last of the special built pedal cars will be going up for sale at the RM Auctions in Scottsdale in January. Built by the renown restorer Fran Roxas, this "Dusey" is truly is another work of art. |
