Clay if what you are referring to was the engineers at Kirkham having a cow about how the dimensions where all over the place, then perhaps you have something there!

Bill, interesting information on the SPFs. I don't see where it says anything about evening up the body. That is unless I just scanned it two quickly. It was my understanding that with the way the original bodies where made there where no two alike (at least not by modern standards) and that some of the dimensions could be off as much as an 1". For instance distance from bottom of rear fenders to ground compaired to one another on the same car, body sitting square to the frame and ride height correct!.

Computerworks, here is a trivia question for you. Unique used to make a 427 Roadster, not talking S/C here. It is my understanding that the body for the Unique roadster was splashed right off of a original roadster. Was is the information on the car that was splashed?
