Yup.. I've got the Tin Man Fabrication ones on our 67 and its makes a world of difference! Easy install and (depending on) the shop should be able to do it for 1 to 2 hours labor.

DAMN, you guys are fast. I usually use TCP. And it takes 3-4 hrs. They wrap around the frame rails up front and lay flat against inner frame rails in the rear. But take a good bit of massaging to fit the usually. Especially to lay flat on the back rails.
But the best is use the floor. TIME consuming, but worth the extra effort.
Just looked at the tinman...they only have two mounting points ?!
They get welded at various points in the front rails since they slide right up inside them a fair distance. I think I had 8 spot welds inside and outside the front rails as well as along the joint. Also they get a fair bit or solid welding on the rear rails. Once installed the difference in the cars stiffness was incredible.
