I finally resorted to creating my own website to organize this information:
http://members.cox.net/fisherconsoles/
Note: Due to my ISP discontinuing their web page hosting service, the above website is no longer in service. However, all the data from that site is available at AK member Jonboy55's http://fisherconsoles.com/ website.
Eventually (if I ever get the time) I hope to link to the photos I have. Until then, please refer to my original post:

I have checked and double-checked for mistakes and I'm sure there are some more I haven't found yet. Please don't hesitate to point them out. As you can see I am still missing pricing data for 1960 and 1961. Also, the 1961 Executive VI remains a mystery. And who knows where the President V and the Executive V went! They're not in either the 1960 or 1961 catalogs - they jump straight from the IV to the VI models.
Another mystery is Analog Addict's C-33:

I have it listed in the chassis database I acquired as a 1962 Chadwick II w/ chassis 460-T and 460-A - same as the '62 Custom Electra. But it's not listed in either the '62 catalog or the '62 price list or any other year for that matter.
Much of the credit for the information contained herein should go to "The Fisher Professor" who was able to fill in most of the information I sought. Amazingly, I actually had some information he needed and we were able to help each other out. The chassis information is all his and mostly based on his comprehensive collection. I've had several very pleasant and extremely informative phone conversations with him. He certainly knows his Fishers.

A listing of *hopefully* all Fisher consoles 1945-58 that have been posted about here at AK can be found here:
