Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
How did you end up attaching the wood floor to the steel bed floor?

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
I agree with the others, all home runs. The wood looks incredible, just had to pull back on the camera shot. I see what you meant about the rough bed coat pushing the rustic wood. The interior panels look amazing. Have fun at Goodguys, and Dinos.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
The wood comes in three section front section middle and back. It is sealed front and back and has a small 1/8 inch piece of wood attaching each section together. Then you place the front and rear sections first and the hump holds it all together. worked out well. I am not done I have a few more tricks I will try to get finished before I leave for the show in two weeks.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
Been watching yet another awesome build roll out of your garage and I love it. I have seen you post your wheel specs several times, but nothing on the tires unless I missed it. I saw from the pics that they are Nitto NT 420's in 22's but couldn't read the sizes.
Please post them up for us guys that are still shopping.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
Thanks I like the kick panels too. I like the stripping on the chest just gives it that hot rod feel.
