Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread

The amount of detail going into your build is simply incredible. Mike, sir, you are the man. 5 hours in garage and you can do what takes alot of us a month to accomplish. Obviously a large group of minions are in your garage.

That's the look I'm wanting. I would of allready pulled the trigger on the hill's inner fenders if I had the cash to burn. I would perfer to buy from an actual forum member if I could though. My project is on hold for a while so no rush. lol.

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread

ok so the bodydrop involves the mounts themselves
i figured they would be metal bushes that go in in the place of the rubber donuts and would just mount the cab straight on the original mounts , good to know as they prolly whont fit my idea of z-ing the chassis right behind the cab and raising the bedfloor the same amount (i like to keep the floor straight so i can put a campertop and a bed on it when i go to meets that are further away like vasteras )
