Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
Nice job! I would ask more questions about the wheels but I don't know if I could handle the ridicule (sarcasm) lol
We need to get a convoy from NW Arkansas and head to Kansas Motor Speedway next year for GG... of course I should probably get my doors on first...

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
BTW. I think the 20/22 combo is very classy. Not a huge fan of anything bigger. JMO.

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
They need to do a retro version that looks similar to the 67-68 like they did the Camaro. Modern twist to the classic look.

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
The tubs look great. Makes me wish I needed a set.
Can you make some smoothed out stock style replacement ones now?

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
Looking great. Lets see that color on the bed.
Just throwing something out there, but since you went through the trouble of creating the front tubs, how about a raised floor and rear tub fiberglass insert for the bed? Lets face it, nobody with a raised bed floor is ever going to haul anything heavier than a cooler of beer/pop and a couple lawn chairs ever again. It could fe fitted in like a bed liner from just under the bed rail.
