2) 1941 - 1948 Mercury Wheelbase: 118"
3) 1941 - 1948 Ford and Mercury - shared common bodies.

It is #3 that has me confused as how can they share common bodies but have a 4" different wheelbase? - unless the wheels were in different locations in the wheel wells?

Anybody know the answers to #3?
Longer hood and front fenders.
