So back from the frame shop the guy is 66 years old and been doing frame work for most of the time he has a very small one man shop with tools I have not seen in 30 years was very good to see old school techniques used .He checked everything and came up with a few problems nothing to bad as to warrant a new frame .

The frame is not diamond shaped.
It is not bent or pushed back that is why everything was measuring out there is only a 1/4 inch difference in left and rt sides which is what I kept coming up with.
The frame however is sagging at the cradle which according to him is a very common issues with these older frames as soon as he started pointing out some reference point issues I could tell the difference .
The oil pan to close to the cradle the center link to close to the oil pan little things that added up to one big thing.
The frame needs to be what he calls impresssoned this is a process ib which they tie down the lt and rt sides of the cradle and push the center of the cradle back into place from below the frame in the center of the motor. S o for now just waiting for him to get the time to do it hopefully in a couple of weeks .The shop has been at the same location for over 40 years and he is well respected in the auto community here everyone I spoke with said he's the guy only time will tell in the meantime on with the show going to start working on finishing the interior as well as detailing the eng compartment wish me luck oh yeah and robbing a bank lol price not to bad starting at 250.00 then we'll see.
