'78 commercial chassis was 1st year for downsizing I think.

77 was the first year for the downsized commercial chassis.

Here it is claimed to be "downsized" to 157 inches

I'll have to check on the trailer size. I'm borrowing one and do not have it yet.

What size is your trailer?

if you have a 16 foot trailer the body may over hang a bit, but wheels should fit easy.

Thanks for the reply. That might be a problem!

I beleive the wheelbase is 144 inches on the hearse, standard caddy is 121

I am purchasing a 1978 cadillac hearse sight unseen that's several hundred miles away. Does anyone know if the wheelbase will be the same as a standard Cadillac of the same year? I'm concerned that my trailer might not be long enough. Per his description it is a Fleetwood Superior Endloader. I can't seem to find out much from Google. I'd be devastated to drive 10 hours only to find out it doesn't fit on the trailer! Thanks in advance!
