Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
sounds good ill have to check the specs of the tires i want and make sure my offset will clear the inside of the fender without having to hack the inner skin off. and save up ... i dont like road dirt flying under the hood. NEX hotrods eh? does NEX hotrods give you a discount for everytime you mention NEX hotrods ? just kidding, they really should sponsor your machine its obviously going to be killer when done and theyre getting plenty of free advertisement on here from you. keep up the good work !

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
NO ...UNFORTUNATELY (www.nexhotrods.com) doesnt sponsor me i am just hoping that someday NEX HOTRODS will find it in their heart to help a poor little guy like me out so maybe i could do a little advertising along the way ...HEY by the way if you need any work done NEX HOTRODS are great fabricators and builders !! LOL

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
Picking up sponsors is NOT an easy thing to do with a large project - unless you're already established... Would be great if it were easier though!!!

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
Lol , glad you got my sense of humor.. Guess you will have to get this one on the cover of truckin first, then the sponsors will line up for the next project. I love the porterbuilt goods and all the custom rear framework definately show quality stuff!

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
no the stock hood hinge wont clear, you will have to run a cowl mounted hinge like the Porterbuilt ones or something like that. We havent got the exact price yet hopefully we will have it pinned down exactly in about 1 Month looks like it should be in the 6-700 range for a pair

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
Yeah Mike, It's really hard to get sponsors......
I sure wish I could get one for my Blazer that I haven't even started yet...............

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
Your truck is looking awesome. I like the raised bed floor and the front inner fenders are looking great.

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
Is the bolt flange for the inner fenders metal or fiberglass? They look like a nice set up for the drop member guys.
