Polly, more than welcome to help you but could you be more specific of what you are looking to do it could save me some time. Do you have a 61 Impala or a 61 Corvette?

no 61 pass car front suspension parts will interchange with a 61 vette. the c-1 vettes, 1953 to 1962, shared a good many front suspension components with the 49 to 54 chevy pass cars, however. mike

A short time ago I needed some front end components for a 66 belair and discovered that some corvette parts did interchange. The source of this comparison was the old J.C. Whitney catalogs. It seems as the old car parts fade away the more popular models remain and by following the through from the oldest catalog I had to the most recient I was able to trace the popular Witney part numbers to the unpopular part I needed.
