57 Ford

Can someone tell me what the wheel base of a 57 is. I am looking for a 4x4 frame to put under this 57 body i found.

It depends on which body you have. There were 4 choices in '57.
6-1/2 ft. Styleside
6-1/2 ft. Flareside
(110" wheelbase)

8 ft. Styleside
8 ft. Flareside
(118" wheelbase)

"Styleside" has flush sides with steel floor
"Flareside" has fenders that stick out with wood floor. Hope this helps you
Kenny
