    Need the body dimensions for a 5w, did several searches but no luck. My body is heavily racked to one side and I need to square it up. Something like these..

    Don,t want to hijack your request but I,ve got the same thing here a 5 window 34 thats banged out of shape.
     
  4. I can do this for you - have a stock and mint 34 five window mounted on my stock frame - getting ready to build a new frame, add new firewall, etc. The firewall is out of it.

    Is the original floor pan in your car? It is probably best to measure from some "known" bolt holes in the floor pan -- at least as a guide. Let me know what you have to measure from.

    Also - are you looking for "top" measurements ( A/B posts ) - or what? Do you have the original doors?

    I'll be out in the shop either later on tonight or tomorrow night.

    Thanks Kreepea I have those to.

    Bored,Yes the doors are the original yes the floor is to and in great shape. Also still bolted to its original frame. A-B in an X like the pic above would help a LOT. My car was rolled over in a wreck or to remove suspension. I have to remove the roof and its getting a chop at the same time.
    Thanks in advance!!!

    I have a 34 5 window as well good floor pan bolted to a stock frame. Do you want the measurement from the inside of the door posts on the floor,at the belt line or frame the body mounting holes. I will be listing it for sale soon.

    I would say about belt line. I think that would get everything back right, I will be able to close the doors after I remove the old roof and that will also help.

    I'm interested in this as well, but for whacky reasons that you probably don't want to hear about....

    O.K. guys here goes.
    A-B pillar 32 5/8(front to back)
    B-B pillar 55
    A-B pillar 59 1/4(x pattern)
    All measurements were taken from the lower part of the bottom
    of the 1" belt line. The x measurement you need to use a small strait edge to project your line into the corner of the body. Hope this helps you out.

    One other thing here guys, trial fit your doors while you are getting your body squared up and adjust accordingly. Then add your bracing etc.....
