Where can I find underbody/ frame/ and underhood measurment specs? Does anyone have access to one of the frame measurement books like a bodyshop has? Can you scan it and post it? I need more than the ford shop manual has.

I have a wrecked 91 conv. but i would like any 79-93. i would think they are almost the same. Im cutting out rear rails and welding them into my 84 conv, and i will be doing alot for front end cutting/ welding on my 88 SSP notchback.

I'm sorry, I left the photo copy at work, I will have to get it posted tomorrow. As for the convertibles, there are some differences I will see about getting that tomorrow as well.

I have the under hood and frame for an 86 and I have the frame and upper body/under hood for a 90 coupe/convertible. If you would like them PM me your email address and I will send them to you, they wont load good in the gallery. The actual sizes that these are copied from are like 11X17 so these are shrunk down to normal 8.5X11 but they read well. Let me know.

I should mention I have most years from 83 to 93. I don't have them all with upper body though. All years from 79-93 should be pretty close to the same with maybe some minor changes. They do have separate spec sheets for coupe/convertible and hatch. Let me know if there are others you would like.

They are the frame spec books we would get, updated every year. We got them by subscription which runs about $1000.00 bucks a year. Several different companies such as KLM, Mitchell, Chief, etc.... They have all the cars foreign and domestic. I don't get the books any more as we have switched to a computerized laser system. But I have books that go back to the late sixties.

I'm here for a friend of mine. He just picked up an 89 notch back. The car was driven into a river and pulled out with a crane and a big chain through the windows. The roof was pinched at the sides.
Would those crash sheets have the specs for the roof?
If so could someone send me a copy of the messurments?
Thanks

Sorry to bump an old thread, but does your frame book have straight on measurements on the core support. Someone hacked mine just below the rails and I have another piece to go back. I want to make sure all the measurements are right and it gets welded in straight.

PM your email address to me and I will send you what I have for your car. I don't know if it is what you will be looking for. If not those measurements are probably not published. The next best thing then would be to get them by measuring a known good car.

Hello,
I recently acquired an '87 LX 5.0 and it has been T-boned in the pass door including the A and B pillar. I want to stretch it back so I can get a new door into it and make it as rain proof as I can. So any info/measurements would be greatly appreciated!!! Thanks. MV

I know this is an old thread but how does 24 3/16 plus 25 3/4 equal the total of 47 13/16?

At the very bottom of the picture.
