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

Saw a very nice vintage pedal car for sale this week.

This is unusual in that it is a pedal car.

Imported I believe from America. I could be mistaken. Tell me more.

Chassis



Previous rider is now 21 years old.

So I got onto it with G3 followed by Zymöl polish.

Loads of scuffs and marks that came off. Leaving it looking better.
Unfortunately the stickers that were stuck on it years ago, and possibly a smoking house means that there is discolouration around the stickers. So removing them would leave marks showing the original silver paint.



After an hour or more the result was pretty decent.

Next job will be getting a kid to pedal it, rather than looking for a button to posh.




Why do I do this stuff?

No idea.
