Oh so you are a Dentist…I remember reading in the build for your wife you have a practice. If your level of work on your hobby is this high I can only imagine the top-notch level of work you give your patients. Man, I bet they are all smiles.

That is funny. I treat my pts like I would treat my parents or kids if they were in my dental chair. I do the best possible work I can and I am always honest with them. It is the only way for me to go home at night and sleep. That is when I do sleep because I am always working on these trucks.

Hey where did your user name come from. I have been using mine as just Chapstr since I bought an xbox 360 in 05. Stole mine from Napstr and combined it with my last name Chapa.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build

Looking badass!! I love the brakes with your choice of wheels. Are you going to run a one or two piece driveshaft? I noticed on your project "Second Chance" you ran a two piece and I've always wondered how that held up to the blown motor? I plan on running some serious HP in my 72 but have always questioned whether a two piece drive shaft would be a week link or not. Thanks for the pics and keep em coming

I have to run a 2 piece. Find a good drive line shopand have them build you a bullet proof drive line. I have had no issues with the 2 piece. Hope that helps.

Did you test that drive shaft in the 'Second Chance' truck? Full pull?

Love this build for your Dad, it sure shows us what can be done in a short time, and with a quality starting point. Well your dedication and mad skills help too.
