Hey guys. Long story short, bought a 68 lark 3yrs ago with a smucked front end. Been slowly working on it.Come to find out drivers side front frame pushed in 1/2 inch.{fender wont fit} Any Frame guys out their? Scrap it, pull it out, o No:
Thanks for the input fellas.At this point not sure what to do. As usual money dictates as im laid off right now. I think ill check one off the local body shops Devon and see what kind of denaros were talking.ray:
Jim, when you say a drivers frame horn, I asume your talking about cutting out and welding back in behind the front wheel? Not adversed to doing so {time is on my side} Just worried about getting it all back to gether right so you can get a front end alinement.When I first bought the car I drove it for awhile {with new tires} and in a very short period tires began to where inside.Tire shop claimed it was my back springs?Really didnt want to do a frame off. What do you think?
Take the car to a local auto body shop . See what they wouold charge to pull the frame. If they need measurements I bet someone here could provide the originals. You'll be fine with a pull unless you trying for a 100 point resto.
I had this done on two cars that had minor collisions......$125-150 per car.....provided I removed the front clip and just my luck...had engines and trans out for rebuilds. The owner had the work done in 3 hours on both cars. Not difficult at all.
