From the photos you have posted in the thread about your car, it looks like it has been built on a Ruby-style chassis, which is often referred to as a 'low frame'. This is because, in standard form, the Ruby used flatter road springs, and so the chassis frame sat lower and nearer to the ground. Once an original car has been modified into a special, the term becomes less appropriate as, for instance, a Ruby frame could be used in a trials special with cambered springs, and has effectively been converted to 'high frame' configuration. Alternatively a 'high frame' chassis is often fitted with flattened springs (usually even flatter than standard Ruby springs) and so becomes as low, or lower, than a standard 'low frame' car.
