Thanks fellas. More fuel for thought. I really like that tube frame PBody, and I am ordering that SFI Spec...Thanks Leon.

Greg...I was actually talking about the height that the frame rails would meet the tail panel. Does it line up with the structural rear cross member in the tail panel, or higher/lower. Just thinking about what I weld it to if it is not lined up with the inner crossmember.

Thanks,
Greg.

just buy some tubing and make it your self... the ones i have put in the frame rails came up high enough to attach to the rear panels.... weld some 1/8 plates everywhere on the body where you attach the frame rails and such to for strength. 6x6 is good for the rear and what ever will fit on the rockers.. if you do go with a kit look into the round tube ones. and dont cheap out on the rod ends... there not cheap.

I guess I got lucky. Mine lined up perfect. I did screw up when I welded my mounting plates over the access holes for the reverse lights. Totally my fault, the plates didn't need to be that big.

I recently helped a buddy with a 4-link back half on a 69 cuda fast back. He used a pre-welded Art Morrison kit, and it also lined up to the rear cross member and front rockers. Maybe I got lucky twice?

Later,

Greg
