    I dont think so. I wanted to use a 67 on my 64 skylark and was told it would not work.

    >>>>Another importance difference in early A-body frames is the '64-67 Chevelles have different frame horns than '67-67 BOP A-bodys.<<<<

    So, if possible take a look at the front frame horns before purchasing.

    To add to my earlier frame horn comments. Late this summer I took several pics of frame horns of front of an original '66 Olds 442 frame. The ends of framehorns were different from a '66 GTO frame I ck'ed at the same time, so Chevelle frame is not the only "one off " '66 A-body frame. Am currently working on getting detailed pics of all '64-67 A-body frames.
