The 5in extra wheelbase length is in the rear leg room on the 4drs, i.e., the rear seat is 5in further back in the Patrician. The 4dr doors & windows are identical between Sr & Jr.
On the 2dr HTs, it is in the distance from the rear window lower lip to the trunk lid lip, i.e. internal trunk length. The rear seat legroom is identical between Sr & Jr HT.
I have all four types here and I just remeasured same because I don't rely so much on my memory any more.

Are the doors and windows of the 55-56 4 door Clippers and Packards the same size? I don't think they are as I believe the extra wheelbase of the senior cars is between the wheels, not from the cowl forward as in 23rd series and back. Thanks.
