Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
he done a nice job with the overlay thingies , it looks like the original gauges are behind them , you might even be able to add some small led lights for blinker , highbeam , low gas , battery , and oilpressure in them

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
Nice progress on the truck, and congrats on the little man joining the fun. Now you need to go buy another truck for yourself!
Sorry to hear about his condition guess I missed that, we'll pray for him too. I only have one kid and shes almost 2 but everytime we go through the garage she points at mine and says "sit? sit? sit? sit?"

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
Glad to see you having a good time with your son. I remember going out and working on my 66 stepper with my dad. Some great times. Try to find a cheap truck that will be his, and he'll be hooked for life

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
tell her it will keep him from running the streets, and on top of that a car is the ultimate form of leverage for any teenager

Also, maybe you can sell the wife on the idea of buying a square for you and your son to work on by justifying that you need one to complete the slosh tubz for them, and they will in turn pay for the truck purchase over time (I know you have a front clip from a square but you need to figure out that part, I can't come up with everything )

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
luckily he is just showing interest at 10 and he is very mechanically minded , maybe i am giving him to much credit but i think he really gets it ! he wants to know how we are going to do it and why !

Oh man, I totally missed those renderings. The gold with white is what I'm doing with my truck. Looks killer. Love that blue too. Two very nice color combos.
