This article will be divided into at least three sections  
  
The first section will list wheelbase, front track and rear track of vehicles so that those interested in frame swaps or clip swaps can find the correct donor vehicle. Dimensions will be listed left to right as wb/ft/rt followed by the year, make and model of the vehicle. For instance: 860, 506, 503 -- 1952 Morris Minor. If one or more of the dimensions are unknown, NA should be inserted in that space. For instance, if the wheelbase of the Morris were unknown, it would be listed as NA, 506, 503 -- 1952 Morris Minor. If the wheelbase were known, but the front and rear track were unknown, it would be listed as 860, NA, NA -- 1952 Morris Minor.

The first section will list wheelbase, front track and rear track of vehicles '''in inches''', so that those interested in frame swaps or clip swaps can find the correct donor vehicle. Dimensions will be listed left to right as wb/ft/rt followed by the year, make and model of the vehicle. For instance: 86.0, 50.6, 50.3 -- 1952 Morris Minor. If one or more of the dimensions are unknown, NA should be inserted in that space. For instance, if the wheelbase of the Morris were unknown, it would be listed as NA, 50.6, 50.3 -- 1952 Morris Minor.
