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

So after boot fair today, I came home and did some indoors jobs, then cut all the hedges and shrubs.

Nicola was away for the weekend again, and got back before I was done, so I had a break, then carried on to finish the cleaning up.

Then I thought I would tackle the clean up of the little yellow Fire Engine.

Strip down.





Most of the chrome detailing was rusted and not too good, but I managed to polish most back to a decent standard.



Polished and painted bits.



Then the body, used T-Cut polish rejuvenator to cut back the dead paint after masking the mudguards.
Followed by Zymöl Polish.



Finaly the reassembly which left us with this so far.



Last thing I need to do when I get time is to get back in the woodwork shed and turn a new steering handle.

Weekend over.
