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

So back to corona maintenance fitted inbetween meetings about meetings and tests about tests.

After starting on the BBQ refurbishment, it was all downhill.

New door frames and doors because the old ones just looked, well, old.





Next up was using the stored wood from the deck rebuild last year to make up some new doors.



While doing all these little bits of work between doing my day job, other bits happened.

@PaulY dropped off a Chevy C10 cab lifter for Martin on his way to a business meeting local to where I live.

While he was at it, he dropped off a few chainsaw chains for me as the chainsaw they used to fit had been stolen in a burglary.

It was so surreal having my mate stop on the driveway, drop off the stuff like a dead body and drive off because of this whole Corona virus thing.

I felt wounded.


Sally texted a pic too, she was at her home and painted the chairs SawdustSteve had brought last year.

Ready for summer.



Typical sally, who seems to find me all sorts of jobs around here.......

Comment on the pic of the new door frames was “You need to clean the brickwork”



So pressure cleaner came up from the garage.



After



Then pressure cleaned the recycled decking doors. Makes a big difference.



And my painter..... working remotely.



Turned into a lot more work than anticipated.
