In 34', the 'Master' passenger car frames were all the same( 112" wheelbase), also known as the "Y-K" frame. This frame was used for all masters.
The 'standard' series wheelbase was 107". It was unofficially known as the 'ladderbar' frame.
The other 2 frames in '34 were truck frames, the 1/2 ton and 1-1/2 ton frames.
If you need more specific info. on the 34's, email me at Thr3wcoupe@cs.com. I also have frame pictures,widths, etc.

No problem, Frank, when I get home from work tonight I'll scan and send you a 'Master' frame picture with measurements to the email address you sent me yesterday.

Hey Rick! First of all, it was great to meet you and your wife last month.
The wheels are Colorado Custom-Leadville ace II, 15's on front, 17's on rear. How did the grille turn out on your sedan?
By the way, there's a nice little 'open' show with 26 different classes coming up this weekend in Carthage, Mo.(S.W. corner of Mo.) check out the info. in Streetrodder 'Happenings' and come see us if your not busy on Sat.(20th)

Lance, The grille turned out great, The bodyman had everything done in a week. even the fenders. Only thing i got to say don't hit anything bouncing in the hiway.
Don't think i can make it to Carthage. Sold my 34 he's picking it up this weekend. Now on to the cabriolet.
I liked your wheels thought about what they would look like on the cabriolet. I'll have to send off for some info.
Rick
