Are mid-60s' C-bodies uni-body or do they have a frame?

My '66 is a uni-body.

They are a unibody design with a removable front frame subassembly. So unibody from firewall back.

And they don't have "K-members".

Yes they have a "K-member" It's part of the front frame section.

The Imperial was a full frame car through the 1966 model year. The 1967 was the first year unibody Imperial and had a front and rear subframe. (Hemmings Classic Car Sept, 2011)
