Not to spoil anything but right now the Duesenberg SJ Bauer is second on the list at 20 feet and 6in. This. List. Is. Taking. Forever. The problem is companies like Cadillac created the Series 60, Deville, and Eldorado. Called them different cars but they had the same body and same length same goes for Chrysler with the Newport/300/New Yorker and so on. So I am chasing cars down rabbit holes endlessly coming to the same result. I should be down soon though I just wanted to vent a little. And the pre war cars always vary in size thanks to coach builders so lengths of pre war cars are next to impossible to find.

Maybe you should have no coach built, if the production numbers are low enough.

I though about making a similar list and came up with a similar problem. I suggest find out what model is usually the longest, and just search that model each year. Not sure if you've got a good database, if not I like this one . Looking forward to the list.

Yes, that could be problematic. Which Bugatti Royale do you use?

I can verify that the 1976 Oldsmobile Delta 88 sedan is 19' long bumper to bumper.

That is the other problem I have added a few notable such as the Royale and V16 Cadillac but for the most part it is too hard to find an average length

I have that grouped with Electra due to similar platform I think it is currently in the top ten

I think it is the Napoleon Coupe. Or whichever Royal is 252in/21ft long.

The Electra is a C-body, shared with the Oldsmobile 98. The Delta 88 is a B-body, same as a Caprice.

Looks like I already had the car on there. My mistake. So many Oldsmobiles I forgot which ones I added

No not even close. Almost a foot and a half off from 100. The U.S. used to make some big cars.
