    Question what is it (frame)????

     



    what do i have?? im new to the hot rod world ive built a ford focus and a fox chassis mustang and a v-8 ford ranger but now i want a bad street rod. i have only one part its an old frame im not even sure if its a ford and i was wondering if any one could help me figure out what it is. its fairly narrow so im thinkin its a possible A or T. Its rusty and has no markings and only has 2 crossmembers. if any one could help with possible measurements or dimensions of frames. that would rock. thanx

    I would think that it would be better for you to post YOUR frame measurements so we can compare There are to many frames out there to play a guessing game As mentioned a picture or two would be nice.Since your asking us to solve the problem INFO would be nice

    Yeah, you had me going on the brush cleaning question from 2008, too! I'm afraid that brush may be dried out by now. If it were me I wouldn't remember the questions after this long

    it turned out to be a dodge bros. frame from the 30's and it is still hanging in my shop rafters to this day. thanks for all the input from your "years" of experience.
