67 Ninety Eight frame interchange
Hey everyone. Ive got a 1967 olds 98 2door. Love this car but the frame has rotted out to the point that i have to start thinking about replacing. Question is, are all 98 frames the same or are 4 door ones different? And does anyone know a source? Thanks

If the frame is rotted, what does the rest of the car look like? It might not be worth the effort being a 2 door car vs. convertible. You might be further ahead if you keep this one for parts, and invest in another in better condition. The only place that I know of to get a frame is one of the large yards in Arizona, and they don't come cheap. It is also a lot of work, and unless the body is rock solid, it will not be a fun job. I did frame replacements when that car was new, and it took 2 experienced guys a week to do the change over, and we didn't have to deal with rusted bolts, etc.

thanks everyone. ill contact henry about it. my car is dead straight and pretty rust free but i havent inspected the body mount areas so not sure if it can handle the replacement at all. Thanks
