I have what I believe to be a late 60's chevy frame under my hotrod project, possibly from a chevelle?
I located a serial number on the frame and Im hoping someone will know what it might be.

the number is on the drivers side frame rail beneath the trunk.

#3960733S271
below the first is 9 3 S 2 XU

thanks for looking,
B

The 733 XU frame is the right one for a 1970 Chevelle, or 442.
