I posted this already once,but put it in the wrong forum..to the staff..I apologize. I have acquired a barn find 63 Galaxie fastback,which has been wrecked,several years ago. 23 to be exact..at any rate,I took it apart today to assess the damages. Not favorable. Frames bent.i have a parts car with a good frame. If I have to ill swap,however,I have a couple of questions I'd like to get answered first..I'm soliciting any good advice..
1st..I live in east tenn and prefer to find a frame shop for estimate on repairing..anyone have any recommendations? Secondly..if I have to roll it out..can I conceivably change frame out without removing the glass in the car? One man operation,unfortunately and a budget..can anyone give me any insight? I'm 65 so my abilities are limited also at this stage in life..lol.thanks in advance and happy motoring.
