Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck

say instead of moving the box forward why not move the wheel well opening forward leaving the box and fender the same length to keep in line with the old gasser afect. like so..

I'm pretty sure you're saying what I'm going to do in a "different way"..... the bed is NOT going to move or be changed at all ..... the rearend housing will be moved forward (5" or so) and then the fenders (wheelwell opening) centered over the wheels/tires.

the rearfenders should modify eazely just cut a rectangle out of each one with 5 inch offset to the front when measured from the centre of the wheel in its stock position and weld the leftside piece in the rightside fender and vice versa if you make the pieces exactly the same there should be hardly any hamering involved

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck

you can hit Go advanced on the bottom of the post box and upload pics but they need to be kinda small. I use 640x480. Or you can post them on photo bucket and put the link that starts with img in the body of a regular message and they will show up!

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck

What I have been doing to add pictures is to page/arrow down to the bottom of the page into the " Additional Options" section.... then click on "manage files" which will bring up a window which will allow you to add pictures from your computer's picture files.... works for me.... easy to do.

that works too but you have to have the pictures resized. and you are limited to 5 pics per post that way!

I usually take all my pictures for use on the internet/computer (low pizels) so that way works for me.

I did NOT know about the "5 pic" limit..... plus I usually don't post that many at a time.... at least not until I start my "BUILD THREAD".... if that ever happens....HA!!!!
