Tom Geiger Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 I believe the 1960 is a first year unibody car, while that Chrysler is a full frame car. I'm sure someone here can suggest a better chassis, maybe one of the Moebius Mopars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkman Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 (edited) One of the Mopars Moebius should make, yes, i.e. the 300F and G.Besides being a unibody, the '60 Adventurer is a DeSoto, not a Dodge.[/anorak mode] Edited November 21, 2017 by Junkman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1972coronet Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 (edited) I thought that only the Valiant ( note : not called "Plymouth" until 1962 ) was unibody for 1960 ? The then-new A-Body line was also the first line to receive an aluminium cast transmission case : the A-904-G .I believe that the remainder of the cars lines were full frame until 1962 with the introduction of the then-new B-Body ; the C-bodies were unitised ( used a subframe through the end ) ; and the 1964 Imperial ( D-Body ) was the last full framed Chrysler .

Junkman Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 All Mopars became unibody for 1960, except the Imperials, which proudly remained body-on-frame until 1966. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Hall Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 I was off a year in regard to the Imperial . 1965 was the last of the D-Body ; the Imperial being 'absorbed' into the C-Body line in 1966 .Off by a year again. The last year of the BOF Imperial was '66. '67 was a unibody C-body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
