When my 1980 got a clunk - only while turning - it turned out that a
short link connecting the rear sway bar had broken on one side. So , no matter what you need to get under the rear and start looking. If nothing visual shows up lift rear end and start shaking and twisting wheels and parts looking for looseness . Check the donuts holding the exhaust too.

Sway bar end links would be my guess as well. Cheap, easy fix.
