    Hoping to find a chart with the dimensions of an Olds 98 Starfire ch***is. If the weight is known even better. I can find the wheelbase and overall car dimensions but I need the frame specs if anyone has a book with pictures.

    I guess you are still looking for a ch***is?
    If you can find a 56 workshop manual (may be on line?) I am sure the dimensions are in there, but maybe not the metal thickness which is what you are after?
    My manual went with the convertible so I can't check for you.
    Good luck. Russell

    Believe it or not, I finally found a frame. But now I need to get the dimensions and weight so I can try to get it shipped.

    Good luck. Where is it being shipped from?

    If the person selling you the frame can't measure it, maybe he doesn't really have it? :)

    There's a bunch of rusted out car in the way. He's going to remove the body but hasn't yet. He's legit. I've done my homework on him
