Re: 65 Frame
Check the rear frame rails for notched out areas for disc brake caliper clearance. This would be right above where the caliper is located. The frame is notched for full rebound of the suspension. -
Re: 65 Frame
I think you have answered your own question, if the front crossmember is not notched for damper clearance and there are no notches in the rear raiols for the calipers, then it's a '64 frameComment

Re: 65 Frame
You do know in 65 when you got a car with drum brakes it was on a 65 frame, not on a 64 frame. If this car has a 64 frame,it is not just a drum brake 65, it is also a wrong frame 65!!Comment

Re: 65 Frame??
Sounds like it might even be a 64 doctored up to look like a 65, with a switched VIN plate. I'm not sure that this is one I'd want to mess with.Comment
