Re: Where is this truck located?

Re: Sweptline frame strength?
My 1964 D100 HPP is 6" high x 2.125 wide. I'll dig out a caliper and see what its thickness is. It's worth noting mine is a rare truck and there was conversation that it used a different frame than a standard order truck. So I'm curious to see if that's the case.
