Not sure, it was just laying around. And again, this car is definitely not going to drive crooked? I was really afraid of that and I don’t wanna finish this thing for it to be crooked driving down the road. Sorry again for asking, just really concerned but I believe your word and a few others...

I just remembered I took the original one out and was just using this as a roller. I think the original one is a 8 3/4 maybe...

Oh and was your major concern about panel placement before you knew I already did that? Sorry for all the questions and thank you again.

How sure are you about that? I’m afraid to do any more work on it lol... Is that diffence in measurements really that bad or am I really ok. I know 1/4 is the tolerance. By the way, thank you so much for the help!

I’m not really sure but it needs a new rear end. It’s an genuine R/T car, numbers matching rear end, 440 and auto transmission. Powered windows, a/c, and more.

So my question is, is the car going to ride crooked or anything knowing that the height is different by a 1/4, and the diagonal is off by about 1/2? Granted, all the panels fit fine too and didn’t run into major issues. When I was putting the frame in, I was scared to death that I was going to...

Here are some picks. I have to go back and fix some welds and finish some panels. I’m a lot better welder now then I was a few years ago. But here ya go

So basically to sum up everything I said, the front measurement distance of the frame rails is the same, the rear is the same. The diagonal is about a 1/2 off, and the height is roughly 1/4 off. Every panel I replaced fit well and everything looks at it should...

Also, the car as it sits right now on wheels is pretty level.

I already replaced the floor from the fire wall back to the trunk, the rear cross member, rear valence, upper deck panal and more. Everything fit fine and it looks good. Didn’t run into major panel problems.

Also ran a diagonal measurement with the tram gauge and there’s about a 1/2 inch difference between the two. I also have a 68’ satellite in my yard and I measured from a hole in the front of the rear frame rail and one hole in the back with the tram gauge and adjusted it so it’s level. Went back...

Also, the front of the rear framerails measurement (36 3/4) is the same on the diagram and on my car. So the front of them have the correct distance and the back as well.

Yes I meant 37 1/4. I wanted to see if the height was correct so I followed a diagram that says put the tram gauge 6 inches down from a hole in the frame at the front of the rear frame rail and and the other end at 16 7/8 to the rear leaf spring pin. But when I did that, the gauge wasn’t reading...

On the diagram, the distance from frame rail to frame rail at the very back is 47 1/4. I measured mine and it’s 47 1/8.

Thank you, I appreciate that

Thanks for the info! The rails all lined up with the floors pretty well and everything fits fine so im sure it’s okay. It’s not like its noticeably crooked or anything. When I put them in a few years ago, I remember it being really hard to make them exactly the same. For some reason I couldn’t...

Look towards the back. One measurement is 82 while the other is 81 1/4. Granted, this was done with a measuring tape and with the rear end was somewhat in the way of the tape. Should I be concerned about 3/4 of an inch? The height seems to be the same and everything fit fine. I also measured...

Thank you all who responded. You’ve been extremely helpful and thanks again!

have a few questions about my car. Can anyone provide a picture of where the trunk floor meets the rear valence? I need it for reference since my old trunk floor and valence were both non existent and there’s a small gap between the new panels. Another question is, should I weld up all the seams...
