    Thanks for the reply Todd. What town are you? I am fretty familar with that area. I have family in Vermont and we drive out that way every summer. I will keep you in mind if nothing else works out. A road trip out that way would be allright by me.

    Joe,

    I'll be unloading a '70 Chevelle frame/body in a few months. Realistically, I just can't get to it before then though.

    It does have the front disc brake setup though.

    I'm over here in Binghamton.

    Binghamton I can do. I can wait for a few months. I know a few guys out that way that would be willing to help me out. Ever hear of a small town called Trumansburg? its just outside of cortland. A few months sounds good. Gotta shake off these winter blues....

    new frame?

    What happened to your frame, if I may ask? Mines cracked on both the driver and passenger side, well on the passenger side the lower "a" arms ripped right off. I founda good chasis place that did a fantastic job of fixing it and its held up for almost 2 years now under big block torque.

    MY frame has some rot. Right behind the front passenger tire, where the frame turns in to clear the wheel. It is hidden real well by the fender. It kind of annoyed me when I founfd it. Of course the guy I bought it off had no idea, even though he was a competent body man. :af: I'd rather just replace and be done with it. I planned on taking almos everything off the frame anyhow. Except for the body:Dou:

    Just a warning... I'd be careful with non-Buick frames. To the best of my knowledge Chevelles (and maybe others) have only 2 body mounts at the firewall while Buicks have 4 body mounts (2 on each side).
