Look closely in front of the rear wheels where the lower control arm mounts. That spot carries most of the load from the rear end and is prone to rust. What will happen is the lower control arm mounting bracket will rip right off the frame.
I know this from personal experience having owned about ten different 65-69 full size Chevys. I only own one currently, a '69 Caprice. I recently finished the frame-off portion of restoration on this car. I ground out 90% of the frame welds and rewelded it all. Rust was minimal fortunately. I did make a custom connector to tie the upper and lower rear control arm attachment points together for reinforcement. These connectors are available for Chevelles to give you an idea what I'm talking about.
