Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
Here are the pics of the truck with the hood on and some of the ac stuff I put in the dash. The vintage air knobs are mounted in the stock location. I cut the back of the old heater controller out and glued it to the stock controller. Little body work and some paint and it should look good

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
...the Cheyenne badge looks great, more modern piece though!???? The art that went into these pieces makes it half the fun in putting these trucks together. I love other C-10 badges, but not my '65s...follow your vision right!!

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
Thanks man this is the truck at ride height. I can get it way up but this is one of the pre sets on the contoller. The truck will sit a little lower air out.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
Looking awesome! I may have said this before, but normally I'm a HUGE fan of smoothed/shaved trucks. But this truck is just PERFECT with the trim, the sidemarker and taillight lenses, emblems, and the stance with the rims. Great vision and you pulled it together into a SWEET truck!

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
This truck is AWESOME! It is tempting/forcing me to spend a small fortune on Porterbuilt parts and start over from scratch on my truck.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
Thanks guys I am glad you guys like the truck. I am really happy with the way it is turning out. I have been trying to get the motor in now for the last 2 weeks but I have been so buisy I am having a hard time finding the time. Mario got the drive on the motor so I will post the pics right now. I really am glad you guys dig the build. More pics to come as I progress through the build.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
Any chance you could do a "costs" breakdown when this project is done?
I know you call this a driver,... but you actually have a very high dollar build here. (for the average guy) I love everything you have done. I wouldn't change any part of it!

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
Not a problem do you want to know total cost to buy and build the truck. Or do you want itemized price of what I paid for everything
