Hi,
I am in a desperate situation.
My car was T boned by a Century Link F5? Work truck
I am looking for any information on body dimensions, as I believe I will be doing the work myself.
I am hoping someone in the community has done a rotisserie restoration, and may can give me the specks for door openings etc.
Here are some sad pics to let you know what it looks like.
Tom

To start maybe taking measurements from "good" side, then changing them using a mirror to do a 180? Sad to see those pictures.
 
Sorry to hear! It looks like you're in Cowlitz County. I know there's a couple of Skylarks in that generation running around. Hopefully you can make contact with one of them.......I'm sure they'd be happy to let you measure away. My '68 unfortunately won't help you any. Good luck - I'll keep my eyes peeled.

Tom,

It would be a benefit to know the year, although it looks like a '64.
A '64 chassis manual could be your best friend as it will have the dimensions you need & broken down by area of car. Although it mostly appears to be sheet metal damage with dimesions you will find out if anything has been tweaked slightly out of shape.
