If it's the original 67 frame, check out how the ps was engineered. If not done properly, the frame will be stressed and the geometry will be off. Another good reason to be suspicious. Not saying it's not worth the asking price, just enter the deal with skepticism when looking at a owner built, not GM built truck, especially a 4x4.
CPNE, I used to have an original '67 2wd. While it had manual steering, could have swore it had the correct frame configuration to bolt a PS box right up? I know the 4wds such as my '68 do not. I remember measuring off of the '67 frame to see how much I'd have to space out for my '68.
