Adam When I tubbed my '67 I sectioned the wheel houses 3 inches to bring the inside of the tubs flush with the outer edge of the frame. If you line up the inside of the tub with the bed bolts, you can see theyare just at the edge of the frame. 3 inches keeps them away from the edge of the bedboards with enouch margin to keep from weakening the boards too much.
