Re: Twin Turbo and Dropmember equipped, Jeremy's '65
 
Thanks to some advice from powerdriver 1958 I figured out how to get my pics upload. One thing I really like about this forum and especially folk's build threads are the stories they tell with the pics and dialogue. It's interesting to me to follow along as the builds progress and the anticipation to seeing the finished product. That being said, I hope over the next few weeks to get pics posted up to the where the build is presently.

Here's a couple more "before" pics:

You can't just go fast, you gotta stop fast too!!!:

Without a doubt my favorite part on the truck, the world famous Dropmember:

Something for the corners:

And some Porterbuilt hinges so we can show off those turbos:

Sorry for the delay everyone. I've been covered up in the shop the last week and a half with some in and out work and the trying to spend some time with the family over the 4th of July holiday. I'll get some more pics up tonight and maybe tomorrow. Looks like lowlifej is giving a little sneak peak of the engine goodies. He's the proud owner of this project.

Now for the fun stuff!

Don't think we're going to need this old thing anymore:

http://67-72chevytrucks.com/gallery/...3/DSC09899.JPG


Not too greasy but I think it needs a little cleaning before the Dropmember can go in:

http://67-72chevytrucks.com/gallery/...3/DSC09900.JPG


Cleaned up and ready for the rack notches:

http://67-72chevytrucks.com/gallery/...3/DSC09905.JPG


Notches welded in. Time to fix someone's creative steering box swap "holes":

Think that looks a little better:

Little rattle can flat black for now, everything will be powdercoated once mock up is done:

Very nice start. Watching your build may cause me to spend some money upgrading my build with a turbo. Looking good so far. Keep up the good work.
