There are other boxes that will bolt up with spacers but they have bad reviews and create steering issues... If you can weld, or have access to a welding shop, you can add the "dimple".. Locate where you want the dimple.. Make "T" shaped cut in the frame. Locate the top "cross bar" of the cut right in the area where the upright and horizontal meet. Make the vertical part of the cut only about 2 - 2 1/2 inches tall. Using a hammer bent the area of the frame inward about 1/2 5/8 inches inward.. Weld up the gap, grind the weld to smooth it out and you're done. I've used this procedure on numerous '67 frames without any "follow-up" issues..
