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

[Grizz1963]

Part 2



Carrying on with the bell housing I used a grinder to flatten the inner fin bits and back edges.

Followed by a lot of shaping and beating the ally diamond plate to create a flat bottomed curve.

Then lastly I opened a new grinder after my 25 year old absolutely abused grinders trigger switch finally refused to engage.

I always have a spare, new, boxed grinder on the shelf and keep 4 grinders all set up differently in use.

Cutting out the externally marked ally while mate John watched and filmed.

Next job will be tidying up and getting a decent fit established.

This is a lot of effort to replace a galvanised bucket.

But we do these things.
