Also, if memory serves, there are 14 bolts that hold the body to the frame:
4 in the trunk, 2 at the rear wheel arches, 6 on the body tub floor
including two way up in the foot wells and 2 in the front engine
compartment.

I measured the arch on some new 1966 1600 springs I have. The arch is 2
3/4" measured from a straight edge on the top of the spring eyes to top
of the main spring leaf.

In anticipation of my new wheels and tires not fitting because of
sagging
springs and a crooked body, I have a few questions. First did anyone
ever
find specs on the free dimensions of the rear springs? Second where are
the
bolts securing the body to the frame all located and how long does it
take
to loosen them all a bit and shift the body. I have from the time I get
home thursday evening till when I leave for the Glenn friday to get my
wheels to fit.
Thanks
