im working on an 80 malibu and im thinkin about getting a different frame cause 7 of the body mounts are rusted out and getting thin metal around them. i dont want to fabricate new metal for them so my question is what donor cars would fit best.

I think there are others that will work but will need to be motified.

Also (unless you get one from down south) chances are the holes on your replacement frame could be rotted as well. I'm thinking I may just repair mine (minor rot around some of the mount holes), but I need to get the stinkin' frame sandblasted again.
