Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
I had about 6 hours in the garage yesterday !! That was NICE ! here is what i accomplished (without a sheetmetal brake) bent everything by hand ......got to get a brake ! After scrapping my original plan because of room , i somewhat loosely followed N2BILLETS lead on the shroud he made (my feeble attempt anyway) i built the upper braces into the top cover , so i could remove the upper mounts for a smoother look...anyway here are the pics

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
the bends look nice and straight you just need to grind some of the little tabs that stick out and polish it
if you run some stainless , rubber or plastic edge over the holes they will look a lot better too ![]()

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
that top piece that looks unfinished right in front of the mount will be boxed in and welded up nice, i have that left to do and make the mounts to attach the shroud at the bottom, and also cut down the top rubber mounts it needs to sink down just a little to be flush with the core support at the top .
