    Anybody have a frame diagram with dimensions for a 49 Cadillac? I have a Series 62 Sedanette and need to build a new modified frame. The original is still under the car but I'd like to get exact dimensions rather than work from transferred measurements. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

    It's a very good start. I also need dimensions for the body mount perches but this does help a lot. Thank you.

    IF you check e-bay there is a guy selling single pages, do a search antique parts section

    I believe my 49 Buick Sedanette has the same frame. I have a shop manual with several frame diagrams that we used to true it. Pretty much what 24riverview sent you, but I think I may have more detail. What exactly do you need? PM me if you have specific questions.

    Just curious as to what type of modification your gonna' do to the frame. I do know for sure that a '77 Cad Seville front "clip" is the exact same width as your '49 and that the Seville rear is the perfect width also.
    Used them both on my '49 Sedanette.
