67 cheby's Dropmember build thread (CLOUD 9)

then i cut down my breather space about 1 1/4 and worked on the welding a little on the bottom breather plate (it was a 2 barrel carb breather) i cut up a 4 barrel one and welded it to the bottom. Oh and tried to find any space left under my bed for the train horns ??? might not be enough room left for them !

[nibs]

What if you welded some studs under the bed floor and hang the horn upside down, pretty much in the same area you have them sitting now.

[watahyahknow]

i dont know if theres the same type of raise in the floor under the seat as in the newer 1977 trucks but maibe you could mount them side by side under the cab or vertical somewhere under the hood like in front between the radiator and grille ...... now that would make them loud

Yeah, all I need is a sponsor. Hmm, maybe Slosh Tubz would be interested.

[67cheby]

lol.....SLOSH TUBZ..needs a sponsor to finish their own truck first !!

[67cheby]

Poor orphan truck ....looking for sponsors...please let me know if you would like to help !! LOL

[es67chevy]

I've got some Jeg's stickers you could put over those holes in your doors. Would that help?

[67cheby]

hmmmmm.....not really the sponsorship i had in mind ! LOL

[funkytechmonkey]

And I have a butt load of wilwood, summit racing, and stripper juice stickers I can throw in.

[67cheby]

you guys.....are so GENEROUS !!

[nibs]

DO IT!


you wont...

[VA72C10]

Nice progress! Those mounts should def. help on the comp's...

No space between the rad support and grille for the train horns? That's where I was going to try to tuck mine (pointed down at a slight angle)

[67cheby]

man these things are huge...no way they would fit there ! the spot where they are setting is the only possible spot to put them, the way they are made they have to stay in that triangular pattern if i could seperate them i could put them alot of places

[funkytechmonkey]

Let me know if they dont fit... I will take them off your hands and put them on my Crewmax

[67cheby]

Will do !

Honestly I do not understand putting alot of work into a vehicle that has a rusty patina. That is just my opinion. Not that I dont think its cool it just seems like a waste of resources and vehicle value. But we all strive to have our own creative voices stand out amongst the hundreds (thousands) out there.
