Comp Engineering Frame Rails - help

[67FirebirdKiller]

So I'm about to start all the weld work on my 67 and purchased some Competition Engineering rear frame rails and I know that some floor/trunk modifications are necessary but these rails don't even look like they were made for the car. For starters i bought them from a guy off CL who was building a 67 himself and gave up. I included a pic of the rails, can anyone tell me if these look right? I spent an hour or two searching images and forums last night to try and find exact rails and since i cant, im led to believe these are not the correct ones. Thanks for any help!



They dont sit flat on the flat trunk pan area, its a tapered gap from the last bend to the rear of the car, goes from 1 inch to like 6 inches.

Here's a pic of the Dynacorn replacement floor for first gens. The kickup angle looks pretty close to the rails you have. The CE rails probably go higher up in the car for axle clearance with tall drag tires.

Ok, thanks west, so you think these Are the correct rails? I'll probably take some pics of how they sit against the car at some point, but if modifications are necessary to make them fit thats fine with me, i just want to be sure my leafs bolt in no problem once all is said and done.

That and the shackle bushing holes seem to say they were made for the Camaro. How CLOSELY made is another matter...

well i looked around for awile on here and found a few members who used them, some modded the floor while others cut the rails up and made them fit the contours which i think i may go that route. I guess they dont fit the car straight from CE as advertised. Just alittle more welding involved i suppose! Thanks for the help!
