I just picked up a 1959 Galaxie 500 2door with a 292Y 3 speed. Unfortunately the frame has seen better days. I've been through this before on my '65 and actually had to build the center portion not being bale to find a suitable doner. Do any of you by chance have, or know where a 2 door frame can be had?? (fingers crossed!) Another option, is there a modern frame that could be swapped in without too much fabrication? Something like a '03-'07 crown vic? Thanks in advance!

I'd be very surprised if a modern Crown Vic would be a suitable donor, but some serious measuring would tell you. Recently I saw some info on a guy who used and Art Morrison chassis and installed a 4.6 mod motor in his 59ish Vic. That would not be a cheap way to go.
