1950 CHRYSLER

Hello,
I have a 1950 Chrysler Sedan. I want to switchthe frame for a more current one. Do you know what could fit it? I heard a Chevy Camero frame might fit but unsure what year? Can you help?

Also I am planning on putting a Chrysler 360 engine or a Chevy 350 engine and conerting my car to a 12 volt system. Do I need to do anything so that I dont burn my Instrument panel? P.S. I plan on having an automatic (if that makes a diference to either question)

Thnank you.

Measure the wheel base of the car then measure something like a Dodge Dakota and se if the wheelbases are the same. A camaro is a unibdy car with a frame in the front only. If you do put a modern frame under it you'll have to move the body mounts from the old frame to the new frame.
