Frame damage

[71guy]

Wondering if anyone has worked with frame damage, i.e. rust in the rear. Thought I had a solution, called Matkins and Phil said he could cut me the rails I need and ship them in a week. That was about 4 weeks ago, with a call in between and another false promise it seems. Does anyone know a site that sells frame rails/pieces or if there is a comparable frame from another Ford product that I can scour the junk yards for. Thanks for any help.

Did you try Jeffs Br. Graveyard..?

(They sponsor this website) I think they can help you.

Yeah, you aren't going to find another frame that is as strong as an EB frame. They are all box frames where as J**ps, trucks and the such are all c-channel frames. That is unless you cut out what you want to replace and weld in 2x4 square stock.

If you are looking for a frame I have one. It's a '76 and only has some slight damage where the bumper connects. I am using it as a doner, because of CA smog laws, for my '73. I could send pictures.

Where do you live? I'm in Long Beach, CA.
