Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
Dude, that truck is insane.This is one top notch build.I know your pain about trying to shoe horn a 4l80e with a dropmember,without cutting the floor to bad.I working on that rite now,so I will stay tuned to your progress.Great job.

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
Very nice progress. What's the deal on the transmission interference? I thought the 4l80 would fit with a high hump? Did you drop your cab? Maybe I missed it in one of your posts?

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
Well Jim, as posted on 67cheby build a few days ago, I finally got the chance to go over all your build today. Everything that all the guys have said about your build is echoed by me. Just a great build. I did a 67 for a friend a few yrs ago (before I knew about this site). It sure would have been a lot of help to me to have had help from this site (lot of great people and great builds). I will continue to watch and enjoy your build and learn more and more each day....Jim
