I'm diggin it Mike! I think it will look great. Very, very sweet truck. You're recognition is only beginning my friend. This is a cover worthy truck if I have ever seen one. It's just a matter of time.

You have done a great job on the design of the truck and the business side with all the sponsors and cool parts. I am sure you will get the cover you want so badly.

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

lol "the few" he says, im pretty sure there are thousands of people watching this build.
Heck thats probably a low estimate, if there was ever a build that held the record for most watched im pretty sure this one smashed them all!

But his almost 7K replies is nearly double the next closest build

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

The more I look at the plaid with the leather the more I like it! Does the light blue in it match the truck? And most importantly; what do your wife and grandpa think?

Yeah, the butterscotch leather and plaid combo are so quirky, they're cool! Retro in a new way! Keep after it!

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

Thank you everyone, the carpet is a real light tan square weave....."Gross Point" from ACC, i think the square weave adds a little European flair to it ! It will be a multi piece carpet and the edges will be bound in the leather
