Can somebody please help me? I need to know the width across the body. Measured at the beltline, at the doorjamb of the 1/4 panels. I'm repairing a car, and I need to know I'm bringing it to the right dimensions. I dont care what part of the jamb it is ( inside a ridge or outside to outside) as long as I can reproduce the same measurement. I dont have any of the inside wood to measure off... Thanks guys.
If you can hong on till the morning i can get a measurement for you. Since it look like you have a good deal of work to do to that three window you might want to push that belt line out a little more, the three windows have a fairly noticeable body pillow from the factory, and now would be a time to take care of that and make the doors and body flow together. the B pillar wood will determine a lot of that along with some sanding. I will get a belt line # in the am
Alex, If you head over to Hi-Speed. My brothers 3 window is there. I am sure Tony would let you take all the measurements you want.
A little late getting back to you. i took my measurements at the same location as Denver Dave. I did push this area out some on this car to improve the flow of the body but each car will be different, and a 1/4" between two cars thats a pretty good bench mark for to build off of. At the top hinge inside lip to inside lip mine is 54 3/4"
