    Hello fellow HAMBers
    I am looking for someone with a 1951 buick that they are restoring . I need a few dimensions from them . My Buick has a bad floor and I need to know if the body has spread in any direction before I start working on it . Any help would be greatly appreciated . Mine is a Buick Super Eight 2 door sedan. :confused:

    Thanks Chief I have checked him out already . Thats the look I am going for but I am going to graft on a 1952 Chev coupe rear window opening . The buick is going to be dropped over a 1989 Chev Caprice floor pan

    Jonny Thanks for the offer I am looking for the measure from side to side at the windlace on the kickpanel .If you have no kickpanels then the pinchweld to pinchweld would be great . I also need the measure of the door opening at the bottom and at the beltline from the A pillar hinge post to the B pillar Stricker post . These should be what I need to verify if my body has spread one way or the other.
    PS Do you have any parts cars ? I am looking for the two lower hinges . The guy before me lost them . How do you lose something so important ??? People will find a way thats for sure !!!
