nothing yet, its not layed out yet, or anywhere close for that matter. word is though, that a mid 80's fullsize clip is the same width as ours frame wise. I dont see the a-arms pushing the wheels out as far as the beams do with our trucks personally, so the track should be fine as well (not wider than the front). I hope to start before summer on the frame, but I will be only using the front clip and running all new rails.

I have the Body Builder's Manuals for all the bumpside years except '68, plus have them for '73-'76. The dimensions didn't change for the bumpside trucks though AFAIK, so using the '70 specs on your '67 should be OK. However, I do plan to sit down one of these days and start comparing the bumpside books and see if anything actually did change that I'm not aware of.
