Re: Grizz's Redneck Express 1966 Chevy Short Fleetside RESTO-GO!
Is the 72 a Holy Grail car or do you just like that year?
Today mate Henry came over from Essex to fit a very sexy LED spotlight in the loft of my garage. I did not realise just how LED technology had moved on. ![]() Lovely feel of quality ![]() I mounted it high in the apex. ![]() While Henry did all the clever stuff, like wiring it into the mains with a complete new circuit and connected to a mains light switch. Beats another extension cord rigged light. ![]() And......... Action. Bright as anything ![]() Around 13.00 we had lunch and a long chat, then back to the Blazer out in the cold, it was chilly though the 5 layers and woolly hat I had on, but Henry agreed to help me try find the reverse/back up light live wire as it needed two hands, we also consulted the Oracle that is Dennis, and an online source plus a full 79 year service manua. Count them...... 5 cut wires and three connecting blocks. Passenger side. ![]() Drivers side...... Fail. ![]() So in the end, the cold and not finding a live reverse wire to connect the LED strip light that Euan had sent, meant we packed it in and had another coffee instead. Fight another day.
