Default factory specs for the frame dimensions 1979??

hey guys, I was wondering if anyone has the factory specs for the frame dimensions? I looked through the AIM and found one page, but it was very basic. I have my frame at a local dealer's body shop, and they don't have the specs for a 79 vette. Any help would be appreciated.

thanks,
Gary

Default

Page 2A-3 of the GM shop manual has dimensions. I can post it or email it to you if you don't have a shop manual.

I scanned it.

Default Frame specs diagrahm is for 1979 and up

That posted frame spec is for a later C3 frame. Beware if using it for a earlier year.
this thread has pics of the different years.
