Does anyone have exact dimensions of center to center body mount positions as well as say if the cars body were on a dolly level the height differences between each mount.

I also want to keep my front clip on the body so the dimensions for its mounts are needed as well. Also does a convertible body need extra support while on dolly verses a t-top?
 
My apologies if linking to another site is not allowed, but here's a link to C-3 frame dimensions. Should have the info you need.

Thanks Tim

That thread seems to cover up to 1981 though. Do you know if any changes occured to the 1982 model? This is a good start for me though, I plan on making mine a roitissere type to finish fiberglass work on it's back floor & detailing the bottom of the body.
 
81 and 82 are the same. Be sure to support the nose of the vette!

I made this one for my 69'. It's made from a similar frame spec sketch.

I also made the top of every leg adjustable.
