I don't think so. I've got a 58 and everything I've seen in the catalogues are that they are different. The main cabs are the same so it must be the fact that the hood and fenders are different, wider at the top for the 4 headlights.Larry

not interchangeable - the 55-57 hinges [57 hinge pic] mount to the firewall only - the 58/9 hinges [58 hinge pic] bolt to the firewall and the inner fender as well, and each bolts to the hood differently - PLUS the spring for 57 mounts entirely on the hinge, the 58 spring mounts from the hinge to the inner fender
