I disagree with the analogy, back in the 30's big Buicks 80/90 Series often shared basic body shells with Cadillac, as the didall the way up to the 90's.

The correct analogy using GM would be a 61-72 Buick Special/Skylark commonly referred to as an "A" body (junior). The full size Buicks, Lesabre, Invicta, Electra would be analogous to Seniors.

The 1935 Packard 120 Junior shared no parts I know of with a Senior Super 8 except perhaps a wiper arm nut. Likewise a 61 bBuick Special shared virtually nothing with the Electra

On the 77-96 Senior GM rear wheel drive CHEVROLET, PONTIAC, OLDS BUICK CADILLAC virtually everything on the front suspension, brakes, rear suspension, some years engine, transmission etc etc are either identical part numbers or functionally identical
