Hi RR,

I believe that the skyliner had a 210" overall length, whereas other fairlanes had an overall length of a tad under 208" but they both had a 118" wheelbases, so even though the skyliner has a longer 'tulip panel' (not actually sure what the little panel connected to the front of the trunk lid is called) between the rear of the cabin and the start of the trunklid, the rear wheelarches should be in the same spot, which would make me think that the extra length would actually be a bit of extra overhang at the rear.

I think it was only the base models and the rancehros that had a shorter wheelbase of 116", and a 202" overall length.

p.s. great model there daryl, that is a really nice choice of colour scheme.
