i bought a 66 Pontiac Convertible frame that came from Florida. It was over 8 hrs one way but happen to look at picture and it was different. Its an American Pontiac frame and it wont fit . Canadian cars use Impala frames. If anyone needs a Bonne or Catalina convertible frame its a good deal at $1250. Located in Montreal

I sent a polite note to the guy early on about it being a USA frame. He said it could be used on a Chevrolet with mods. Ok bud.

I can tell by looking at the single photo that it won't work.

 Not even close to working on our cars. I hope he gives it a try on his own car!
