Re: Continental Kit doesn't fit

your continental kit came off of a 1952 Patrician with a slightly different rear fender fit, these senior sedan kits are nearly impossible to find

the 53-54 Caribbeans actually have a senior rear fender section grafted onto them, if you look inside the trunk in the taillight area you can see the end of the std. convertible rear fender taillight area still remaining, the Caribbean trunk lids are the same size as regular convertibles, the Caribbeans had a unique continental kit especially made for them so the Continental kit was designed to fit the body modifications made by Ionia Manufacturing Company. The regular 53 and 54 continental kits for the coupes and standard convertibles were not the same as the Caribbeans. Also the 53 Caribbean and 54 Caribbean continental kits are vastly different.
