You're welcome.  My source is from the factory repair manual.  I have not gone over the measurments in Vinb's pic.  I do like that it is measured from different locations.  I have saved it.  From the two it would give you several measuring points.

Let's see you can move the engine back an inch and move the rear rails inboard an ich per side and build it the way you want.

I e-mailed you another chart, it is to large to post. If you want to resize it and post go ahead.

Thanks Dave and I just freaked out a bunch of people I know that saw the car last sunday when I cut the old frame out,And this is what they saw today.The fenders and frt.valance are junk but were good for a quick mock up to make sure things are in line.I am so freakin excited,I doubt I will get any sleep tonight.
