As Jerry said - NO.
Not only the combination you mentioned, but no 1953-1955 sedan front clip will fit any 1953-1955 C/K (coupe/hardtop) model and vice versa.

Actually, apparently one guy HAS done this (only backward).
Not saying that it's not a LOT of work....but yes, it can be done.

I would guess it involved torches, welders and prayers that the geometry of the frame and suspension did little suffering.

The sedan fenders are a lot shorter and in 1955 they switched to a wraparound windshield half way
during the model year.

I tried a 55 on a 54 and no it won' fit. The part I had ordered had the same part number but a different year

I have no idea WHICH Part you ordered, but the SAME Part Number CAN NOT change from year to year unless the Part does. I
t's illustration Picture Number may be the same, but a different year Part that is different in a way that makes it a no fit, would definitely have a different Part number.

If both parts/sections are off a sedan or wagon, its not a big deal - bolt on if the wagon is a flat windshield.
It is the attempt to mix in C/K parts on a sedan or wagon that becomes next to impossible.
