I was wondering why you are looking for a frame for your Chevy? Do you not have an original frame with the body?

The best frame for any old car is the one it came with or from another which is the same.
You can add suspensions, steering, engines, transmissions, rearends with ease to an original frame.
Making any late model frame correctly fit an old car is difficult and never is right and usually destroys the value of the car if and when you try to sell it.
