Re: Grizz's Redneck Express 1966 Chevy Short Fleetside RESTO-GO!

I guess it had to happen some time.......

We all respond differently to life’s challenges.

Thank you all fo the support and patience while I dragged my butt on the Chevy truck resto by doing all sorts of other stuff and observing life around me.

Many of you have been willing me on to get back to the truck, but it has its own schedule.

So here is a clue.









Can you guess what it is yet??





Yup.......

Time to start back on the truck.

Bodywork and welding.

Lots of welding.

Bought the welder direct from Rally Design and collected it from mate Neil in Faversham last night.

Thanks mate.

Looking forward to getting the wire and dialling it in, then starting the cut, weld, grind boogie.

Unpacked it in the lounge earlier, remember who pays the mortgage..... it’s a lovely machine.

Can do both MiG and arc or stick welding..

While I was with Neil and looking at his car http://www.rodsnsods.co.uk/forum/garage/bit-bit-503826
He asked if I was interested in buying a Snap On toolbox.

Considering my tools have lived here the last two years........






The answer had to be yes please.

So tonight after work I took Prozac and headed down to Neil's place again, cash in hand,

After cleaning up the toolbox for me, we had to carry it between and over two Mercedes Benz’s

And into the back of this amazing little van.



Back at home......



Next up will be cleaning it up, cleaning the tools and packing the lot up.

And then.....

Truck time, inbetween living life as we know it.

In the mean time the six baby birds keep growing.



Thanks for checking in.
