Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
What is the backspacing on the rear wheels? I really like how close the wheel/tire is to the bedside. Really looks clean that way.

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
the back wheels are 22x10's with 7 1/2 inches of backspacing, but i am running a billet spacer with a 69 up rearend , i couldnt see spending the BIG BUCKS....that it takes to get these kind of wheels custom made to exactly what i wanted so i made these work with the setup i have , bought them on this board in the for sale section...THANKS VA72c10 once again, I LOVE my wheels

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
did i mention how much i love having my truck at home ..... only had about 1 hour to work on it last night but i started with the used Painless wiring i got from a board member, and stripped all of the tape and loom off it, stripped the wires i didnt need from the engine compartment, and started temporarily routing the wires so i can figure out lengths and routing paths !! It was great if i can get just 1 hour of stuff done a day ...it is MOVING FORWARD !!

The panel could cover the whole vent opening to seal it off too.

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
yeterday i stopped by a swap meet the first pic is what i couldnt pass up for $10 buckaroos, mocking up my vintage air so i can figure out where to put my computer brain, and where to run my fuel injection wiring out of the firewall (i am thinking in the middle right behind the distributor), then got the box put back in working on getting everything set so i can start stretching the fleece on it to make all of the contours ! oh brought the painless wiring to work with me today to start cleaning it up and checking all of the wires on it !
