Does the VIN start with CM2 or CM3? Is it a Pickup? If it is it could only be a 9' Fenderside if it's a 1t. If it's an 8' Fenderside or Wideside then it's a 3/4t. The HO52 (3/4t) and HO72 (1t) rear axles in single wheel look the same for all practical purposes. If it has a Dana60 it is a 3/4t. The VIN will ell you,though.

Ok,it's a 3/4t. C=2wd,M=V6,and 2=3/4t or 2500 GMC/20 Chevy. For example...if it was an inline 6 truck it would be CS2,4wd V6 would be KM2,1t V6 would be CM3. There were no 4wd one tons and no one tons with 127" wheelbase/8' bed. The only 1t pickup in '67 was a Fenderside (GMC) or Stepside (Chevy) with a 133" wheelbase.
