Early 8 mile run ! Mon, wed, Friday mornings! But if my bed was home I probably would have skipped my run and sat in the garage staring at it !

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread

mike leave the pinch. takes away from the resto part....dont start shaving stuff... I dont like it on mine either but i wanted a resto mod and it was on there when the truck was built. also the whole point of the bolt on body drop was to put the pinch on the ground...if we wanted more that we would not have spent $$$ on a very small manageagble body drop. just my 2cents. im leaving mine. oh ill send you a pic of those wheels when they get done....very first set ever done by them in those sizes.

cool! Where are those from?

And on the pinch...as someone else mentioned.....if it does bother you...you could paint it satin black or just put satin black vinyl on it so you could remove it later if wanted...

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread

so does that mean if we all fill up pages with meaningless gibberish you'll get it done sooner? Now that I've seen color, I can't wait to see it done, and if all it takes is filling up pages I can copy and paste until this thing hits the magic number!
