Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread

Mike, we are anticipating the upclose photo of the Chevy script on that notch cover!!! Don't leave us hangin! You have done an incredible job on this truck and we all hope to see all this hard work in a full magazine spread AND at SEMA. You need some sponsors for this incredible build and I can't beleive that noone has approached you. Although, Slosh Tubz could sponsor this build and it COULD be a company write-off!!!!

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread

I havent even got to see the script myself yet ! i sent the camera with a friend and he snapped those pics for me ! as soon as i can get over i will get a shot ! As far as sponsors go .....YES THAT WOULD BE NICE...i could use a Tire sponsor, and deffinately a brake sponsoror , i talked to CPP about the brake part and they said that they were going to hook me up but then after that ......they never would answer any of my emails ...LOL, so i guess that aint gonna happen !

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread

I was promised by a Cheif Editor of a well known publishing company that he would do an article on AC installation using my truck. Free AC unit was promised......but never did materialize after unanswered phone calls and emails. Dirty Bass Turds.......

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread

well here is a couple pics of my practice top cover panel, the hole around the waterneck will be done with a dimple dye, my idea at this time is to have this whole front panel to lap over the inside panels to hold all of them in place (still playing with ideas) . I have all of the new panels patterned and ready to roll and bend but it looks like i will get no time to work on it this weekend ! that stinks !
