Sorry for the bubble bursting, but that frame is not suitable for a Caribbean. The location and the height of the outriggers is quite different than needed to accommodate the hog troughs behind the rockers on the convertible bodies. Second it lacks the extra upper and lower plates that were welded all along the siderails and x-member. Lastly the actual gauge of metal is thinner than the convertible frame iirc. Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how did you like the play?
