that last pic has a good shot of my bed mounting brackets that some of you were asking about, pretty simple used the front ones we took off and modified them a little

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread

the frame will be gloss black powdercoat, everything that bolts on to it will be this charcoal gray metallic.. ie.. dropmember , trans member,4link , the rearend is gloss black. I am not big on chrome rearend covers but i am putting one on this rearend because i think it will look really cool with the black rearend , chrome cover and the charcoal girdle on top of it

Man I've got just over a year in mine and I thought that was a long time! Seven years and I would be going nuts. I wont have the paint and body work done by then, but I should be driving it there. Cory

I know right... I couldn't imagine.

I've had my truck a month and I'm already dying for it to be done.
