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

Thought I would just add some random pics.

NASCAR Truck racing stuff......

What keeps Dennis busy at crazy hours of the day and night.

Build them, break them, repeat.

So this is what comes home from the various tracks they race at. Often thrown into the walls at 150 plus mph.






When any of he 13 trucks get destroyed on track, they have to get rebuilt in the shop.

Every track has a car built to specification for that track, now you get why it's such an expensive sport.

Stripped down to a frame......




New sheet metal gets fabricated and a new carbon fibre nose added.




We had to pop in at Mittler Bros Racing to check the metal work of the truck they were rebuilding again.



Next up.... paint.





Then Dennis gets onto the fun part.

After the paint dries, he starts the wrap and stickers.






And then it is ready to be thrown up against a wall somewhere across the USA again, in the pursuit of a podium spat.




Nice to be working on these 358 cubic inch displacement V8 motors, pushing out around 750bhp.

Later.
