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

Badges.

Remember them.

Covered in floor polish, crazy? Seems not.







Last night I also added the second layer of scrim foam.



Tonight I cut it back and then trimmed the edges.

Next stop will be the black vinyl.

Fingers crossed.



Also yesterday, I went to JWE engineering to see about having a Custom propshaft made up.

Mazda one side, Ford on the other.

Around £200.00 and I supply the MX5 propshaft to have a Ford back end added on.



So I measured it and delivered ‘them today.



Turn around time could be 2-3 days

.the differential flange uses bolts, screwed into it.

Weird size that I cannot readily buy off the shelf is a collared, M10 x 1 and 18mm long bolt.

So need to get four of these high tensile bolts.



I continue to be amazed by some vendors on Ebay.

On Monday evening I ordered this silencer.

Delivered before midday today.

Service.

Compared to the unit @kevins gave me, this is a bit shorter and smaller.

Just hope it all fits neatly.





Last bit of delivery pleasure today was the stick on number plate to go on the rear.



This will fit in above the fuel filler toolbox and next to the rear lights.
