Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
The extra effort you are putting into the fenders will pay off big time. Looking awesome!

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
I think that was the right decision Mike. It hard to not keep wanting to do more when in the middle of a project, but sometimes its best to just stick to the origional plan. I looked for a second at doign a motor swap on mine, but decided against it because I wanted to not prolong the build anymore. Some day, after i repaint and new wheels, I will build myself a nasty carbed LS motor to swap in. Until then and during the motor build, i will still be able to get in my truck and cruise whenever I want a break. Keep up the good work and get that truck done!

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
I agree on the good call as I have been limiting the modifications id like to do as I have not drove the truck in 10 years so I feel your pain..

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
You guys made me feel alot better! i was pissing and moaning about two years, well i wasn't but the boss is! I can't get over how long everything takes to get done, and you don't want to rush it and not do it right. 67cheby your doing it right in my book. truck looks great!

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
that is what i've been telling her! But i screwed up when i bought this truck and told her i was buying a "driver".... I drove it two hundred feet before i started to take it apart, that was two years ago. lol Then I found this forum and that nathan guy and now you know the rest of the story! lol
good luck my friend, i hope we both get ours back on the road soon! Ray |

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
It never does but you did sell it and made some cash for the truck so your a head of the game. Keep the faith, we will get them done!
