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

Mate Martin popped in on his way to his Bike Club meeting tonight to drop off this gift from Ian Brown,, it had me really laughing or at least chuckling out loud this week when he mentioned it would be in the post.

Thanks Ian !!



Today I felt really guilty at my lack of progress recently, I have been busy bit not doing much truck stuff.

So tonight I gathered all the bits needed to make a relocated battery tray, to be fitted under the passenger seat.
This will open up the engine bay a bit.



Started to cut all the flat bar and angle iron needed and dug out some threaded bar needed for the hold down bracket.



Got this far with the welding when the trigger self destructed again, I really need to buy a replacement for my welder, just don't have any idea what to buy that will work on the welder.

At least the first part of the new battery tray is now welded up.



Hope to find somewhere to buy a replacement trigger tomorrow.
