cool! One big step closer.... you're too early on starting it up...on the tv shows they wait to try to start it until 5 min before the reveal

Guessing the fuel leak is taken care of?

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

-Make carpet hmmm that might take one day
-install side glass 4 hours my guess
-install seat 1 hour
-install guage panel, dashpad 1 hour
-kick panels 15 minutes
-install hood can take 4 hours if it doesnt fit right
-bumpers should take less than 2 hours
-bedwood bout 4 hours depending if you have to drill holes and stuff
-gas cap filler 2 hours depending on if ou need to build it from scratch or just mount it
-brake lines and i am waiting on one brake line that wont be here until tuesday mount everything sofar and the last on on thuesday
the notch cover is in the paint shop whell you mounted it once so it shouldnt take long

at least the list is small enough to post it on here , wat you put on here should be 4 workdays or so on youre own , the end is in sight

I would offer to come and help, but by the time I got there you would be on your way to Vegas!!!

Slow and steady, do a list and start at the hardest one, get that one done and all it does it get easier from there on in..

Good luck

What about a cap with a gauge in it, there are available everywhere up here, but look decent, but not as shinny as a Billet cap though.. Is there not a Summit warehouse in Vegas?? Change it when you get there..

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

Id go ahead and put a request up on uship to have another backup plan.

And look into renting a trailer and truck as a last resort

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

time to call up the sponsors who are at sema as whell , that would be the best bet for a ride to sema , other than drive cloud 9 all the way (would make a nice add on to the story of the allready famous truck )
