67 Rag. I put a 66 Buick frame under 
my 64 ragtop.
Pont,Buick, Olds conv frames are the same length as the El Camino Frame.
It's been covered many times on Team Chevelle, You must cut 3 5/16 ( don't 
hold me to that measurement As I can't fins mt spec sheet at the moment ) 
between the rear side mount and the rear mount each side.

The El Camino frame has the same strengths the convertible frame , there 
both Boxed.

The only difference on the 67 frame from other years is the rear spring , 
your 67 and some late 66's use small pigtail top and bottom and 64.64 and 
most 66 use small pig tail bottom and large spring OD @ the top.

I have NEVER seen a "Narrower" frame between the years 64 to 67 other then 
the reduction of INSIDE width of the convertible or El camino boxing, 
resulting in an narrower cross member.


Look up that frame info on Team Chevells. Also Dalespage.com ??? use to 
also have a link to Frame dimensions
