With the frame naked I have had a chance to run a tape over it to check for squareness and it is mostly good except the front right hand corner was kicked up a little but before I dropped it down onto the floor I thought I would straighten a bent cross tube second from the front at the top, it looks like because there are no real jacking points under the car someone has used a lifter hooked to the middle of the tube to lift the car for some reason. A few taps with a jewelers tool [12 pound ] and it was straight again and that also fixed the kick up at the front corner easy as that. I will be adding some tubes into the front to help hang the new suspension parts so that should add some much needed strength into that area.
