frame alignment!need some help!

As the title allready said I need some help. I'm getting my -67 belvedere convertible frame-aligned after a crash last summer but we can't seem to find any pics that display the measurementpoints on the frame and body.Anybody know where to get a hold of these kind of documents? :confused:

Factory service manual should have it

welcome

or the old Dealership Crash Sheets

Here you go...

Thanks for all the hints,and the picture 66_B_Body4ever!

STOP... WAIT...
The factory service manual does not provide all of the information that a
real frame guy will need to straighten your frame. For the old mopars, the only source of this information is called a Tru-way frame book.

There is a guy I believe you can call, give your car/model year be sure to mention convertible and I believe he will fax you a copy from the book.... (for free!)
at least he has done this in the past... I forget his name I'm sorry...

Here is the link:
http://www.klinesauto.com/PDFs/Current Newsletter PDF/Frame Spec Library.pdf

There are 5 or 6 locations shown.
I forget exactly which one it is (try Reading or Pottstown first)
Ask about the tru-way frame books and tell him you need the specs for your 67
Plymouth Belvedere convertible.

Good luck....

P.S. have you actually found a frame shop that is going to do this work?
If so, do post the name. 90-99% of modern collision shops won't touch an old mopar....
collision damaged or not... I'm dying to know! Thanks!

Actually, that's exactly where the spec's came from!
The beauty of the old Mopars is most everything is symetrical on the bodies for the upper structure, and as long as we have the underbody (foundation) measurements and good panels to fit up with we have enough to get going with. Todays Mitchell/Hein-Werner spec sheets give way more detailed information than 40+ years ago, but thats progress...

it's been a long time since I've been logged on here!in case anyone wonders the beautiful piece of automobile this thread is about is up and running! I got started on the project,extracting the motor and tranny,removed the K-beam and started cutting and drilling out the smashed inner fender and frame in the front-left corner, but then the project came to a sudden stop,mostly because the lack of an adequate workshop. She stood long and well under the moon and the stars until a friend of mine,a real MoPar-fanatic bought it from me. Offtopic: He's a real redneck,farming and making tractortrailers for a living.He also restores cars,mainly american ones!Both for himself and others on demand,and for a small amount of money compared to a "professional" shop.He's the best! Anyways he did the alignment all by himself in a couple of weeks!I went to check her out every now and then and it brought tears to my eyes when she was ready.I was thinking about bying her back but I couldn't afford it back then.He later sold it on and I haven't heard of her since... =/
