Here's the '32 frame dimensions from Wescott's. http://www.wescottsauto.com/WebCatalog/Tech/FrameDiagram1932.pdf
Be careful with the Westcott's,If I hadn't double checked the body against frame would have been to almost an inch wide for my car....
Deuce Daddy Don has some extremely nice drawings. HRP Location: Bend,Oregon Price: in ad Not Wescotts drawings!! Original 1932 FOMOCO drawings. Frame only--- 30X42 inches---- 50.50 + SHP.cost to your zip code. 3 views, top, side, bottom, showing ALL MEASUREMENTS. PAYPAL is accepted-----PAYPAL chg. is $ 5.00-----ALL USD. Frame scale is 3 inches = 1 foot Satisfaction guaranteed, shipped in H.Duty cardboard cylinder for safety.
Your body has been tweaked, As they are not that far off, I have found as much as 1/8 diffrence from a stock original never bent frame. But the wescotts diagram is acceptable for a 32 build. If you had almost a inch diffrence, Your body is not right.
You know, I bought these blue prints from Don a few years back to frame and hang on the wall.....they come in a Nice tube Cylinder just like you say. I put them up so they would not get lost. Now I can't find them anywhere. I figure they will not turn up until I go to move....LOL
