frame for a 109 IIa

[Rob P]

Anybody have any idea what a frame for a 109 would cost? I know the galvanized frames run about $4000 but what about a "used" frame? Anybody?

I have a really good frame for a 109 RHD series III for $1800

Now I aint to good with what will fit with what.........would this frame work under a LHD '67?

It will fit, but if the replacement chassis is RHD only you will need to cut out the steering rely mount and tube and swap it to the left side, or just add similar mount to the left.

There are differences between 109 two door and four door frames, but they can have the tub mounts and such modified to work.

Not a huge job, but you will want to be able (and willing) to cut and weld on your chassis. You could always add a power steeing box the the outside of the frame rail, with modifications to the steering column while you are at it....

Or just obtain a RHD Series steering box and column and go RHD. (Makes it easier to fit a V8....)

Jeff Wilson ( got the frame from him) has the LHD front crossmember that he said could be done for $200. Just a thought.
