I ordered a custom frame for my chevelle from Scott’s hot rods in Knoxville. After a year, it was finally completed. The frame however does not fit the car. Scott’s suggested I cut up my car to make it fit. That‘ not what I paid for. Now I’m in a real bind. I need a frame asap. Any suggestions would be appreciate. Bob
Help - I need a frame for a 69 chevelle.

Ouch. Thats a plate full of misfortune. I can think of a couple ways something like that could happen but cannot imagine it going out the door that way. Can imagine the responsible party going out the door though. I feel sorry for the both of you. Talk about undue hassle. Y'all are right, ain't no more trust or slack due to the frame shop. Mistakes come in all sizes but a guy oughta own his own. Trust that a course of action will turn up soon and keep alert. Best of healing for Mr. Chevelle. The situation is bound to get better and its good of you to help push through the rough spell. Chins up. We'll hope for better days ahead.

Scotts Hot Rods SUCKS. I built a 70 with one their POS frames (customer supplied) and it was nothing but a total disaster. The wheel base was wrong. The wheel track width was wrong. The rear axle was narrowed (again not disclosed). It was built so the body had to be mini tubbed which they didn't disclose. They said it was set up for a BB and a TH400 which there was no way would fit with the body on. The coil overs supplied let the car sit so low the rear axle hit the body. They also designed it so it basically channeled body dropping it 3" without taking into consideration of the drivetrain hitting the floor and firewall. I had to cut the motor mount brackets off the frame and modify them. Had to modify the trans crossmember. Everything about it was a total POS. That company deserves to be put out of business. And yes I have pics to prove it.
You responded to my post being a new member…I’m an Oldsmobile 442 guy. Yes I have both a convertible and hardtop frame both from 69’s……you can text me at 661-203-6953 for pictures. Thanks, Dave

Hi Dave - Thanks for responding. I found a frame on an Oldsmobile that was in fairly good shape. Took two days and some elbow grease but got almost all of the rust off. Car is almost done. Should be picking it up by the end of next week. I will post a photo.
Glad you found one, good luck with your car.
so still have one convertible frame, one hardtop frame and several convertible top frames…located in central California
