Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
Sorry to hear about the engine. But the replacement sounds even better.
How are you planning to shave the firewall? Symettrical? Shave the rain gutter? Cap it 90 or at 45 degrees? And keep us up to speed if something happens with the burb (to be tahoe)

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
I have a couple of multi part questions,
1. Does your custom billet side markers utilize a factory reflector/light housing? is it made for L.E.D.? I'm interested in making some similar. ![]() 2. Where did you get your upper mouldings? How was the fitment/quality? Did you buy your lower mouldings from them too? Woodgrain or black?

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
I will send you pica when I get back into town as the markers are off right now. The molding kit uses all stock clips and was 875 for the upper and lower with the tail gate. Hope this helps.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
Another awesome build, and in my back yard......hope I see it around town.
...on another note, do you still have the front crossmember with suspension and if so, wanna get rid of it. I'm close and would be glad to come get it.......and also get a peek at your projects. Looking for 5 lug for my 68.....thx.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
If I were not waiting for axles and the motor I could have the truck back together in two weeks. The issue is I am fixing all the screw ups the other guy made which happens and also I will have a few weeks in the engine compartment with the inner fenders. I plan to take it to cool April night in redding this yr. Should be fun. That is if it's not raining.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
I like the satin finish for the frame, rather than gloss. You should be driving it in a couple weeks right?

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
Frame looks GOOD! It looks like you coated it with the rear notch, front member, and trailing arm crossmember installed. That's how I want to do mine. I've just noticed that a lot of people get everything coated apart. Did everything get covered nice around all that stuff?
