    I have a '70 Electra convertible that needs a new frame. I have a line on a rust free frame out of a '69 Electra convertible. Are they the same or are they different?

    I'm pretty sure the '67-'70 frames are the same X-frame style platform. '71 and later was a different animal. I think you're in good shape.

    I read here that the model year 1970 - 1976 Electra had a 127 inches wheelbase.

    The model year 1969 Electra had a 126.2 inches wheelbase.

    And the model year 1961 - 1968 Electra had a 126 inches wheelbase.
