yes..chop the rear..theres stuff all over the internet...it actually has to be sectioned, you just dont cut the rear cross member off and move it..

personally..find a nice hardtop frame or 4 door frame ( the four door is how you steal one)..and buy the helwig frame FX boxing kit...it could really pass as a stock boxed frame, unless you had it on a lift..plus it picks up an extra body mount and makes it ride better..done it more than a few times

67 is 67 because of the 400 turbo and the rear spring pockets, you could modify an early one by using your trans brackets and the spring pockets in the rear...

then you could get a 64-67..

i just sold a 67 lemans convert frame bare for 3K i could have gotten more...but i threw a ridiculous number out and he jumped..i didnt really want to sell it ..they are so hard to get...almost impossible in 2018

all 65-67 GS Buicks have convert frames...all of them, originally..coupe hardtop etc..its part of the GS package
