Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
Been watching yet another awesome build roll out of your garage and I love it. I have seen you post your wheel specs several times, but nothing on the tires unless I missed it. I saw from the pics that they are Nitto NT 420's in 22's but couldn't read the sizes.
Please post them up for us guys that are still shopping.

Thanks I like the kick panels too. I like the stripping on the chest just gives it that hot rod feel.

Beautiful by the way.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
ok here are some pics. as I said last night Mario, Bill and I are working as hard as we can to get the truck finished. It will get done but we will be cutting it close. While Mario works on the inner fenders I built a box for the inside of the fenders for the AC lines to run through so the wheels will not hit the lines. I also built a tray to hold the cooler/ ice chest in in the back of the truck. We will hopefully be doing body work today and tonight and paint tomorrow.
