1949 1950 drivetrain differences

[oldstyle]

Hello all,

My 49 Roadmaster needs a lot of work. It does have most everything but in fairly bad shape. I found a 50 Buick which someone is hot rodding so the engine/dynaflow, rear end, radiator, rebuilt shocks, and front clip are available. I'm wondering if these things can be transferred over to my 49. I'm assuming the engine is a yes ( will verify it has the 320).

 

thanks

Raul

Engine, transmission, and rear end will be the same. Not sure about torque tube length, since there were a couple of different wheelbases for the 1950 Roadmaster, depending on whether it is a Riviera sedan(model 72) or a model 71 or 76R without the extra wheelbase length.
