are you referring to the Square body tubz ? If so these are just the "PLUGS" that the mold is built off of and i just left the whole factory fender together in 1 piece for support (this way all of the factory bolt holes stay lined up ) while they are building the mold, when they are produced none of that underneath will be in there ! does that make sense ?

With the slosh tubz in place is there enough room in the fender to run the A/C lines?

I had the money and was getting ready to pull the trigger, but I figured out that my driveshaft isn't going to work anymore this weekend, so I have to order one of those first. Soon though...

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread

* When you put your truck in park the hood should unlatch and open up. Then shut when the key is turned on. * Nice idea for your drop member cover too!
