Body Dimensions

Hello,

I'm currently restoring a 76 EB and want to verify some critical body dims with anyone with a straight, unmolested EB. I have my new front door post screwed in at 39-3/16 inch from the rear door post. Can anyone verify this dim? I copied my passenger side, but that's been redone prior to my ownership.

Steve

What points are you using to measure at? 39 3/16" from where to where?

I'm measuring from the flat where the hinge bolts on to the rear quarter panel edge.

Thanks for the info, it was a great help.

I'm putting my body slowly back together and will be placing it on the frame before I weld anything...just to make sure everything lines up.

Thats quite a project you have going there. Looks like you're doing it right though.

The next time that neighbor kid comes around complaining, put him to work

Keep us posted on the progress.
