Thanks man. Got the trans back and it's ready to go. So I need to get to marios shop to drop the motor in. I am waiting on the front drive and new headers before I put the motor in. I don't feel like hanging over the fenders to put the drive on. So I need it asap so I have to go to the rodshop today to find out were it is.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build

What length steering column did you go with? I'm trying to figure out what would be a comfortable length for my '69 CST. I'll probably be moving the tank to the rear to give me a few more inches of leg room. Thanks buddy! The truck is looking dadgum awesome. Great job.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build

Just 2 questions 1971 was the only year they added the sicker for the disc brakes and And after all that work why not french a Gas door on the end of the bed so you can fill your truck truck up with as never understand why people that do body work and can do it so well why not do the Gas door on the side of the bed thats my thought but nice truck build i have a factory all black Cheyenne and i only payed 650.00 for it but it's coming slowly but it's coming

To answer your question I know the sticker only came on 71 as did the door panels I used but I like them better so that is why I picked them. Second this is a resto mod build so that is why I did not shave the gas tank. I like it were it is at. If I shaved it I might as well shave the trim and put a full custom paint job on it but then it would not be a cheyenne. Also If I shave the door then I have to do paint work and as I stated the paint is nice on the truck. Glad you got your truck for 650. If its a cheyenne and you are keeping the trim dont shave the gas door off. Just my two cents. Take care

No problem Mike. I have not trimmed the hood yet. Just got it on this weekend and I can't lay it out all the way with the hood on because I did not trim it yet. But I will get you some close ups tonight. I had to re wet sand the hood and buff it because something got on it when it was out in the rain. So I will try to get them for you tonight or tomorrow. Later

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build

I would too but I want a little different look. I am going to try to make the motor compartment smooth from the back of the grill to the firewall. Cant wait to see the fenders finished
