YOur work is outstanding, I have scanned thru all 3 builds today. I will have to subscribe to see what happens with the finished trucks.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build

Thanks Karl. Here is what I finished last night. I made a cut through for the air lines and the wires and built a box so you would not see any of the wires or air lines from the bed. I welded nuts into the floor so i could mount the air tank to the false floor. I also finished under coating the bed.




I also finished cutting the hole for the battery box.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build

looking good , time for some spray in bedliner now , i dont know what brand you like but i sure like the texture that Line-ex has i think it is the most even texture, doesnt look like cottage cheese like some of the others do

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build

Looks great bro. I am using an undercoating on the bottom of the bed and the cab. I just want to get the project finished, What was the cost to do the bottom of the cab if you dont mind me asking.

I pulled it from my photobucket collection.

http://s984.photobucket.com/albums/a...cpZZ1QQtppZZ36

Page 2 or 3 I think. There are 5-6 pictures of it there.

Soon I will have 5-6 (or hopefully 20) pictures of Pops 72 on there.

Now back to the topic of this build...
I LOVE this truck.
