Model A frame.

[rustbucket]

Has anyone built a model A frame(i think for sure Jethro showed a thread on it) ?
i'm looking for the total dimensions of a frame and wondered if it was left parallel or tapered from back to front like the original
Thanks

Frame dimensions are in Wescott's Catalogue or available on-line at Wescott's website. Building it tapered like stock just makes fitting everything easier.

I believe Jethro had some plans he found off the internet. I am not sure where but if you PM he may lead you in the right direction I am sure.

Like tinn said. Wescott has the dimensions.

[d.w.]

Looks like you have the body... it makes it really easy if you get aftermarket rails, then space them to fit your body. That way you know it's going to be perfect. I don't know if I'd use someone else's dimensions if I had a body to measure... I've heard too many firsthand comments about internet drawings.

I have used Wescott's drawing's a bunch of times...I changed a few things for different cars but, they are a good start for sure.......
