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

Thanks for collecting Kerry.

Looks like Saturday is growing...... More people to BBQ for.

Looking forward to sorting out your truck.


BLUE TITS !!!


Thought that would get your attention.

Last year Harley the Thug, garage cat ate both Blue Tit babies.

So I removed the nest over winter, then put up a new nesting box on the other side of the garage, this morning I saw that they were back, and had started padding the new nesting box with poopy paper.

Where do they find clean poopy paper??

Anyway, it's good to see them back.



The towbar has it's second coat of Hammerite.

Today I bought new 8.8 high tensile bolts for all the fittings oft he towbar as well as a pair of even higher spec collared Allen head bolts to make into fixing pins, along with the R-Clips I was given on Monday by the local spares shop.

Measured, then ground flat aspects for the drill to take to, drilled through (sacrificing some bits in the process) and then tidied them up.






This means the towbar is now complete, ready to fit once the truck is ready for reassembly.
