Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
ok here are some pics. as I said last night Mario, Bill and I are working as hard as we can to get the truck finished. It will get done but we will be cutting it close. While Mario works on the inner fenders I built a box for the inside of the fenders for the AC lines to run through so the wheels will not hit the lines. I also built a tray to hold the cooler/ ice chest in in the back of the truck. We will hopefully be doing body work today and tonight and paint tomorrow.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
That was marios idea. They will come through the inside of the fender using a bulk head. Should be clean.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
Yes they will be bolted to the inside of the front fenders. There are also 2 custom made brackets that attach to the fire wall and the core support.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
Thank you I think when these inner fenders are done it will really clean the motor compartment up.

Re: Pops 72 cheyenne dropmember build
Can't wait to see some pics of the wheels tubs. I love this truck, definitely one of my favorite builds and if i'm ever able to be lucky enough to own another C-10 besides my 68 i'm building now it would have to be 71-72 Cheyenne that closely resembles this truck. Great work and a absolutely beautiful truck.
