Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
i love the salt flats also....but changing the wheels is DEFF NOT IN THE BUDGET.... the only way i ever got billet wheels in the first place was the SMOKING deal i got from VA72C10 !! thanks again....it had crossed my mind to do the spokes in a textured light gray like you did on yours, but i just dont think i can bring myself to do it to these wheels !!

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
When my wife gets like that I always say,
"It's my truck woman and I will do with it as I please, now get back in the kitchen and fetch my breakfast!" Of course, I never say that where she could actually hear me... Yeesh! Talk about "funding" being cut...

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
That looks great! I forgot what you're doing for bed floor....wood or metal? I think it would look really cool if the factory metal floor flowed into that piece...

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
Mike, is it the picture, not being finished welding, or what, but does the new piece "bow" in towards the center of the bed? Might be just an illusion (referring to first pic in post #2410).

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
I agree with you. Tough decision to make. It's not easily changed. It took me three days to pick the right shade of yellow for my truck. I finally gave the samples to my wife and said pick one. I was ready to paint it satin black. Good luck bud.

my color choice since it will be my daily driver (assuming it's ever done).
