Does anyone know where a person can find the autobody/frame shop diagram for the '53 Ford 2 dr coupe? I am getting started on a project 53 and am looking at using a late model ford sedan (Crown Vic, Town Car, etc) as a donor for suspension, drive train and interior parts. If the diagram is not circulating anywhere, can anyone provide me with wheelbase as well as front and rear track width?
i dont understand ??-if you doing a 53 that means you have one right in front of you -- take your tape and start measuring--
You would be correct if I were not just in the planning stages of the build. I want the dimensions so that I can work out some of the suspension modifications in my head before hand, at least in rough form. Besides, having gone thru this previosly...Not every project vehicle comes to us in un-collided form. I want to verify that the project vehicle is straight enough to be used prior to purchase if possible.
