Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread (CLOUD 9)
no the tranportation, hotel and SEMA fees were all on me ! If you get inside and set up in a booth i think they usually take care of your expenses. This being my first SEMA it was all out of pocket for me plus missing 8 days of my 100% commission job ! IT WAS A VERY EXPENSIVE ENDEAVOR !!

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread (CLOUD 9)
read a thing on the internet a while back about how to photograph cars , it adviced to use the morning light and lower the camera down to carlevel so you dont have reflections in the windows but better shine in the paint and chrome
im kindah sorry i never saved the link i had made a few pics using this advice and they came out realy good another good thing about taking pics early in the morning is that the crowd isnt walking in front of the cam all the time

Very true. That having been said, Zoomin is spelled with no trailing "g" for those of you looking to update your beneficiaries.

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread (CLOUD 9)
The companies want to see what kind of reach you as a representative can give their product, The fact that my truck was going to SEMA and the online presence that my truck has both here and on facebook helped alot also ! i think the SEMA thing was the biggest part !

Your truck turned out great. I'm sure that never gets old hearing after your long build. Very nice. You should feel proud.
Good luck on your wifes build. Marc

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread (CLOUD 9)
I thought it was VW! about 2 months ago I saw one that color and after seeing the pics on here of your painted panels I was almost certain that was it. Awesome truck Mike!

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread (CLOUD 9)
Ha! I figured that color out months ago but didn't want to ruin your surprise. When you said that you'd have something that "screamed VeeWee" on the outside I was going to throw a picture of a swamp cooler on here. That would've trumped the gold thing I bet!
