Right idea, wrong make. All '57-'59 wagons, all the
way up to the New Yorker, were built on the Dodge 122"
wb. (Other Plymouths had a 118" wb, other Firesweeps
and '58-'59 Windsors shared 122" with Dodge, other
senior DeSotos and Chryslers had 126".)
Not sure how great the difference was between Plymouth
and Dodge bodies in '57-'59, but there was quite a bit
of difference (as far as rooflines, anyway, especially
4dr sedans) in '53-'54 and again in '55-'56.
