Bad news------both rear torque boxes and the frame attached to them are rotted out. Are replacements available? I haven't found anything yet. Are any other makes/models interchangeable? Mustang....etc....? this drastically changes my plans and timeline.... HELP>DM

Welding in new frame sections is a big job and requires the removal of the body. IMHO you'd be better off finding a donor car with a solid frame to swap.
I'm just shooting from the hip here so someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but if memory serves me right I believe Galaxie frames are interchangeable from '65 to '68. Also I think the 2 & 4 door hardtops and station wagons were all built with the same heavy-duty boxed rail frames as the convertibles, they just may have different body mounts.
