Default Bumper reveal for front bumper 1966 2+2

Installed my front bumper today. Going through my manuals I don't see any measurement for how much reveal I should leave below body line on the side of the front fender. I have looked at several photos; some are really tight to an inch or so below. What I had before was quite low. So, I can't go by what it was before I took it off.

I'd say about half of that

Thanks Steve. I was looking at some old brochures, and they look pretty tight. I'm thinking i am going to set it at 1/4 of an inch. I realize it's not a photo, but the rendering is consistent throughout the brochure.
