I am looking for a 1969 Chevelle frame for a 2 door hardtop. Preferably for a big block, if that makes a difference. I had someone call, and say they had a frame out of a 1968 4 door that is the same. Now from what I understand, the 4 door is not the same. Can anyone verify this to make sure. I would hate to miss out on the frame if it will work for me. lf so, does the frame have to be a big block frame to work, or is the small block frame the same.

Thanks for all the help in advance, Chuck

Four door frames are NOT the same, it will take cutting and welding to make it work.

Hi. 68 Frames are are different in at least 2 areas that I know of. Under the front crossmember there is what I would call a mini skid plate looking thing welded to the frame. Real obvious when looking down from the top. The rear brake hose hole is different than 69-72's.

x2, what he said

at first glance they look the same but there are differences. a 2 door 68 frame will work under a 69 car though.
