Re: '72 Drop member... "Betty"
Seth, this thing is looking killer. So you decided on stock manifolds too? That is the direction I keep debating on. Currently that is how I am approaching mine.

The project is looking great.

Thank you. Ya stock manifolds. My goal is to keep as much stock looking stuff as possible with a few subtle custom touches. I am going to hide A/C lines and some wiring but leaving the washer hoses and some other things to keep the "original" look of the truck...

Only it lays frame on air ride with 22" wheels
you know, like they should of back then!

Re: '72 Drop member... "Betty"
All the sub structure is in place. The center box behind the tail gate will house the accuair. I am going to build something to hold the tail gate open at a 45°angle to display the air ride stuff. Getting closer. .. so ready to drive it. Thanks for all the support. It really helps me stay focused
