    Question

    I have a 67 wildcat conv and want to know if a 68 Wildcat frame or other parts will swap?

    The frame from a 67 to 70 Wildcat convert will fit. Likwise the 67 to 70 Electra convert share the same frame.

    Convertibles have a "boxed" frame for strength. The 2 door hardtop bodys have a "C" frame...that is the shape of the side rails. While you "could" put the frame from a sedan/hardtop under the drop top body, it would not be a wise thing to do. It will twist on bumps, and crack the windshield. There are a lot of other reasons too.
