Brian, I too am like Morris, I can't figure out where to measure to make it all be in the right place for the final wheel alingment, but not having any weight nor the springs compressed is going to make a big difference when it is finally set down on the wheels.
I too have the doner truck near by and will make a template ,but another opion and specs would sure be a help. Thanks ,George Hood
Morris, Nice looking 63. Make sure your son keeps is eyes on the road and not the young girls. About 12 yrs ago when my son frist got his D.L. it cost me the new chrome bumper and grill on this very same 65. Good Luck,George
