Re: Grizz's Redneck Express 1966 Chevy Short Fleetside BILLYBOB

Short report.


Took the Truck and Grizz-Pod to the Retro Rides Gathering '13 the past weekend.

Left by 09.00 on Friday morning, got there by 14.00 which included about an hours stpping along the way for coffee and relaxing.



At the show, Tim my mate who also drives a '74 Chevy camper truck gave me this rev counter for the truck.



Friday night after BBQ this was the view in the camping field.



On Saturday Tim was off to do some shopping, on his return he did some maintenance, almost disappearing into the engine bay.




I left the show before 2pm on Sunday as I had to detour to pick up a pillar drill I had bought a couple of weeks ago in Buckingham.
I had collected some spare seats for Nicola's MX5 which moved into the teardrop once I collected the drill.



Who said this truck should not work ?



Assembled, cleaned and serviced. Good value at £80.00





I will do a more complete write up with pics when I get time.

In the mean time the truck still pleases me.

Thanks for checking in.
