Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread (CLOUD 9)

Might as well hit GG's to make sure the bugs are out so you don't have to push it around at SEMA. It seems like there is always something at the last minute, so you never know.

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread (CLOUD 9)

it would be a good idea to test it a couple a days first to work out the bugs maibe even leave the front and the bed off the first few outings (use some bend pieces of rubber or sheetmetal for fenders to prevent stuff comming of the wheels hitting the paint ) for quick acces during the first runs
allmost everything is new on the truck so you shouldnt expect to many problems other than small leaks or piping rattling on the frame , leaving everything off makes them eazier to spot and get too

idea's for the trucks and the order of things to do are taking shape and get closer to being realized , a few more months and i be able to start building for real

i complete 2 of the trucks intoo running fashion one custom and one basicly stock the thirth will be sacrificed for parts

I would say that a "test run" at GG would be very advisable, any potential embarassing glitches or bugs that could be worked out before SEMA would far outweigh the "reveal" at GG. Like you said a flawless SEMA should be the goal.

But since I have exactly 0 trucks to show at either places I will now shut up and direct you back to your regular sceheduled program.

I doubt it. If anything people will be watching for it to check it out. I doubt so many people will have seen it at GG's and then not want to see it at SEMA. You'll be fine.
