Default If you're interested in a little pop quiz...

I was surprised by the answer. Without looking it up of course,and we'll know if you do...
lol...guess the difference in overall length between the longest 1st gen Camaro, the '69 vs. the shortest tri-five Chevy, the '55 sedan.

Are you referring to wheelbase or overall length?

I think the 55's wheelbase would be a few inches longer (maybe 6" or 7"), but bumper to bumper it would be much more significant.

I was referring to the differences in the overall lengths.
