Take off the front end, the doors, the bumpers, the electrical and shifter parts, the emergency brake cable, unbolt the 10 body bolts and get 6 friends to lift it.
AnswerYes. The frame and body design on both Chevelle and El Camino were identical in 1964. Refer to a manual for your installation. Try opgi.com for starters. This is where I get parts as well. Good luck.Be sure to recognize that the window rails of the doors are different. On the Chevelle, the top structure of the door is relatively square and on the El Camino it is slanted, therefor some bodywork will be required to swap doors.
g-body 1978-1988
any 71 chevelle body should drop onto that frame as I believe they used the same frame.
if you find out, let me know! I have a 79 GMC caballero, 305v-8 with factory 3 speed. special ordered new. I am 2nd owner.
you have to have the car off the ground and look underneath it and you will see body mounts on the frame, there are approx. 8 to 10 mounts that hold the body to the frame.
What are the dimension of a 1974 El Camino
A body
The Mustang has utilized unibody construction ever since it was introduced in 1964. The frame is built into the body and floor pans. There is no separate frame like you see on full frame vehicles like pickup trucks.
Yes, '68-'72 El Caminos (Gen 3) are the same body from the firewall back. Frames are the same.
It is a G Body.
there are bolts that go through the frame to the body that have to come out before you can raise the body off the frame, also all wiring has to be disconnected from the motor and the firewall.
No, 2 differen't body styles.
