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

So today the Astro, which was professionally lowered a lot, if you look at some photos from the side etc, got to work for real for the first time.

550kg is not a lot, bug when you place it over and behind the rear wheels and diff, it certainly affects things.

There is some stuff about to start happening at Grizz Towers soon, so I am getting a lot of peripheral stuff done, prepared and planned.

The fuel tank was about 40mm off the drive if you zoom in under the rear.
​Luckily I only had about 1.5 miles or 2.5km to drive.
Including a hill, two roundabouts and my crappy road outside.

I have one more load to collect tomorrow morning from Uncle Bob the Hoarders yard and Uncle Peter to pay.








This part of the story will unfold in a slightly different way depending on how many people complain, compliment or question.

So make some noise.
