Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
I just read all 60 pages over the last few days that truck is awesome and you have some skills and great people helping !
I'm not much into stereos anymore but i think we used to use some fiberfill stuff in the box when we didnt have the recommended air space. you can get it from crutchfield or most any install shop stocks the stuff. Also i would like to see more details on skunkwerx blue truck that looks like the color i wanted ! very very nice truck ! my wife said "what do you keep looking at on the computer ? youve been on there alot lately ?" i said " its a truck forum where you see other peoples projects develop step by step , its a blog for men ! lol " |

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
satin is in
 Unless it's chrome I don't like polished under the hood. It's never a mirror polish so it always looks dirty/scratched to me anyways... And chrome only used sparingly... ...now billet specialties items....those look nice polished.....but are $$$$$$$$$$

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
hmmm...then i might recommend the same for the pump then. It's smooth so it'll look really good painted. And will not stick out but blend nicely and then the black/silver contrast will be nice and sharp with no other colors involved.....just my humble opinion

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
Great to see some progress and to hear you are getting excited in the project again.
I know I have lost motivation on mine quite a few times. It might be a little easier to stay focused if I didn't have five project vehicles going all at the same time.

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
Hope these do provide you with the funds needed to finish up your truck. I know you've been working hard on them and deserve a break to get your truck finished!!!

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
Nice work on the inner fender blanks. It looks like a real cool design. I think you will get some $$ back out of the deal. Nice!
