Re: '64 frame swap
Camaros are unibody. No frame, just suspension hung from points on the unibody structure. You could use parts from it though.

Re: '64 frame swap
Scrap it. There's probably not much on it that's worth the effort of removing. Front suspension is struts, and like Frizzle Fry said, bolt into a uni-body chassis... no frame, the body itself is the structure. The rear diff might be worth keeping?????

Re: '64 frame swap
if the car is a six cylinder,the rear may be a 3.42.good for swapping into v8 camaros.
