Not quite my truck, but I guess here in the UK we have to stand together as these trucks are not so common, and Martin is a bit of a bodywork guru as he managed a bodyshop for many years so I will surely be needing his help as well when I get to painting and prepping the truck.
So hopefully this update makes sense.
Bought an older 210 liter compressor from a friend last week, collecting this week. Happy at £100 for it.
Plan is to clean it and service it, then use it to paint the Chevy truck.
Years ago I restored a 1963 VW Beetle from this.....
In other news, I went over to help mate Martin to put up a car port frame yesterday, started at 0,5'C at 08.00 and turned into a good day.
We ended up working till about 19.00 which was about 2 plus hours after dark and then I went back today to help him get the roof on as well.
Bunch of pics of the process.
Front corner post was actually correct.
After dark we carried on with the neighbours spotlight
Today we got half the roof on when rain stopped safe play.
Of course the whole motivation for this roof build is so that Martin can work under some cover over winter prepping his truck.
And that pretty much brought another weekend to an end.
