1965 Cutlass F-85 frame

Hello,
need a new frame for my 65 convertible. Obviously I'd love to find one but realistically I'm going to have to modify a non-vert frame. Let me know if you have one, especially if your located in the Northeast since I could pick it up verse shipping. Thanks!

1965 Cutlass F-85 frame

First of all, welcome to the site. Secondly, what part of your frame is bad? Any chance of repairing it? Thanks, Bob.

put it this way Rocket man, if you needed to move the current frame you would do it with a broom and dust pan! It sat in a pine forest when I was too broke to store it and that finished it off. Thanks

im down in CT, in Fairfield, not too far from you I'm sure. I'm on a budget (like everyone!) So im not sure if u are interested in selling off the chassis or the whole car. If you have a number in mind for either or, shoot it to me. Thanks for the response!

i hate the idea of ripping apart a car that someone could fix up and enjoy, that would be my big hesitation. Not sure if I could live with myself!!

wow, that's a good deal. My problem is that I am getting tight on storage and workspace. I just about have enough space to deal with the one car. That is going to give me cause for pause though, thanks for the info!
