Hi
       Depending on the extent of the damage different methods can be used ,
for rollover damage (which is generally complicated ) the key is to regain
the original alignment /contour and dimensions of the windshield frame/roof
. The best is with Hydraulic rams ,try to push the top of the "A" post back
into alignment ,some heat (manually applied oxyacetylene)may be required to
prevent tearing of the metal. Cross measurements of the body cavity will
have to be made to ensure alignment is on  , in addition whos to say that
the main body hasn't been tweaked either and should be measured out and
"pulled" on a frame aligner if required. Unit bodies MUST be within 1/16th
of an inch or better alignment .

Subject: straightening front post from being rolled??



 Hey guy's, I have a 66 barracuda which was rolled over the front end. The
back and side glasses are fine, but the front post was bent some. Whats the
best way to go about straightening something like that, and where can a guy
get a hold of an upper control arm cheap? How about some bucket seats? The
seats don't need to be perfect, just cheap.   I can repair them when I get
the money, but use seat covers for the time being. I also may need a couple
fenders and a hood.

  Thanks guy's and gal's, Don, ( realdeal69dude2003@xxxxxxxxx )
