Re: 67cheby DM 3.2 install, W/PB 4link, PB hood hinges
What was your process for filling in the slots, did you use one piece or many small pieces?

Re: 67cheby DM 3.2 install, W/PB 4link, PB hood hinges
the shop where my truck is currently Mayhews Race Cars did the mod , he used one single piece, he also made some mounting tabs underneath that lock it in place , since the screws on top are gone, he did a sweet job

Re: 67cheby DM 3.2 install, W/PB 4link, PB hood hinges
well they say you must go backwards to go forward...... so here is my backwards, forward progress from last night , stripped the frame flipped it over to finish the welds on the bottom, stripped the bed to bare metal dropping it off at the body shop today

Sucks about the color, but the rear end looks great. Who is setting up your gears?

That will be a classic moment right there! You'll have to have someone with a video camera to catch the other people's faces

Re: Raising the bed floor 67cheby
Looks killer. What did you decide on the bed floor? I have some pics of one of mine that might work in your situation w/minimal re-work. I can post them up tonight if you're still undecided.
