Does someone have a 65-66 frame diagram. I bought one on ebay-but I cant read five of the measurements. I dont know where this one page is out of, does someone know what book this is in-maybe I can get a better copy. I need the diagnal measurement between the rear frame rails(LH front to RH rear).Diagnal between rear of front rail(RH) to front of opposite rear rail(LH). Measurement from rear of front rail(LH) to front of rear rail(LH) thanks

The drawing you are loking for is in the Ford shop manual. The dimensions are rather difficult to apply, unless you have an unmolested underbody. All dimensions are referenced from existing holes in the rails that were used during the original assembly fixtures. But here they are:

Diagonal between rear frame rails: 61.55 in

Left front rail to rear of same rail: 73.78 in

Diagonal right front rail at rear to the Left rear rail front: 59.33 in

Hope it helps

I feel your pain on buying crappy copies from ebay.

Good luck Im doing the same thing except im starting in the front of the car. I hope you have a better platform to statrt from because there isnt very many measurements on the ford shop manual. Take plenty of measurments before you cut!!

Good luck to you
