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

So in today’s exciting episode, work proceeded in 0’C or 32’F on the drive, with a chilly light breeze to accompany proceedings.




So this is how it started.


Drained the water from the cooling system.





Replaced with Antifreeze and deionised water.





Also in attendance for the whole procedure, including starting up and running the motor for a while, was George.

Clearly taking his new job seriously.





Earlier in the day, mate Martin and I had met in a layby so I could raid his scrap bin in his van……

I was headed to my local nut n bolt guy to get some bits to create an adjustable stop for the gas pedal to push against the firewall.

This should do the job, once shaped, cut to size and welded in place.






So not much done, but a whole lot more than if I had sat indoors drinking coffee and eating cookies.


Small jobs need to be gathered and completed.


One by one.
