I need those as soon as I can get back on mine. Got a kid gettin married and trying to get a car put together for HotRod magazine drag week has kind of slowed the truck money down for a while. Tired of the snow yet ?

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread

I'm a service manager in a honda store in Tulsa. Use to own a carlot and bodyshop up in kansas , did ground up frame-off restorations and built wrecked cars for a long time also, Now I just play with my own stuff , but I have been thinking about trying to open up some kind of hot rod and harley shop. You work for a car lot right ?

We started out that way in October with an all time snow fall record for the month but ever since have had next to nothing for snow. My yard is completely clear of all snow when I should have four feet of accumulation by now.

Weird weather for sure.

Wow...this is the 1st time I've seen a picture to show me what 18" of snow looks like...that's just crazy. I live in Sacramento, so no snow for me. I don't know how you all do it. Today is supposed to be a high of 59 and I think that's cold. I guess I can't ever use the excuse "it's too cold in the garage" on this board...

NO YOU CAN'T!!!

Of course my garage in under my house and it's not cold so I can't either.....

Hmm, I guess I should get off of here and get down there.

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread

Are you guys kidding me, it was below zero here this morning and we got up to 23* for a high, and it felt warm... lol I have so much snow in my drive way the snow blower can't throw it over the banks anymore. we are having a record year, and your wearing shorts to work, and 59 is cold. I am living in the wrong state......

Don Carlton's is where I work , We don't have a body shop here , but we sell a lot of body parts . I moved south for better weather and I think the snow followed me , Maybe I need to move further south .......

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread

Nice metal parts. The snow sucks. I'm stuck in the driveway, can't go anywhere. Wish I'd gotten my posi rearend in earlier. 8 to 10 inches here. The packed down stuff is ice underneath. Not fun to drive on. They haven't plowed or sanded the roads up here on the mountain yet either.
