I'm not sure about the wiper towers, but the way I always can tell is by the rear slope on back of the car, at least on the 4-doors. The 4- door Torpedo has a...
The wipers towers are truely different as you describe. I always look at the stainless trim. On the Torpedo it stops at the rear window and on the Streamliner...

What type of fluid should I be using in an 1948 Pontiac Hydramatic transmission? The book says to use straight 20W oil. The car I have had not been run in...
