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

Amazing what you can get done in an hour.

Cleaning the carport and paving at the garage.

Moving the Rezin Rockit body up the drive and starting the donor MX5 which happily started up and moved around under its own steam.




Then washed the fiberglass body with chlorine bleach gel and a soft broom.

Its amazing how dirty it got over the last year or so, grinder dust, sawdust etc.



Once rinsed.

It looked better.



And finally all the bits moved into place for the next phase.

@nickwheeler and a few others like @westbay, @kevins @jimi @pauly and the whole team of contributors should smile at the next few days planned actions.

First thing is to find a bit of time to unpack the big shed, where the engine hoist and engine stand are stashed, along with a few other reserve tools.

Once unpacked they can go into the carport area.

Keep in mind engine gets a full service, cambelt etc.

My holidays will be well used I suspect.




Progress is Progress.
