Re: GRIZZ’s ‘79 - 2WD BLAZER Challenge over in London, England. “~It’s not a Project
Got home yesterday from a day spent at Sally’s place completely gutting and tearing her bedroom and all of its furniture apart.
Her son, daughter in law and grandson will be moving in for two years with her in order to save up for a deposit on their own place. The lovely landlord where they have lived the last three years and cleaned up and improved at their own cost has doubled the rent. So she is giving them the large main bedroom, redecorated and moving herself into the third very small bedroom. Crazy, but that’s a mother’s love, and they are good hardworking kids. Being that it all will be going into Prozac the van, for disposal at the local council tip 10:miles away, it really needed to be completely dismantled, right down to the handles, knobs, runners, hinges etc which @CraigRK is getting for his garage projects where he builds sliding storage solutions.. Got home and there was a surprise parcel in the kitchen, which Tim, the new lodger must have got from Mickey next door when he came in from his all day training course. I opened the parcel and found a note, two number plates and a number plate surround. The new plate was from a 1955 Lambretta scooter, unused, for my collection. The second plate was an original 1962 California plate, clearly worked all its life. Parcel from Ernie, PedalcarJoe, collector of high end stuff. In this case, he had been told to get rid of his first ever emotional patina purchase by power that is Mrs PCJ. So the reason I wanted to sell the Blazer in the first place, and have been buying upholstery fabric and other bits, and even now, am looking for an INDUSTRIAL SEWING MACHINE, was because I wanted to buy Ernie 1962 Ford Falcon Country Squire. Which of course has now sold, hence the 1954 Chevy Bel Air moving into the picture, unless I find something else more interesting ![]() This was the car for those who did not know it. And yes, it would have kept its look, mostly. Older pics. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Re: GRIZZ’s ‘79 - 2WD BLAZER Challenge over in London, England. “~It’s not a Project
.a very eventful weekend for me, Sally and Prozac.
She was gutting and destroying all of her bedroom furniture I had to dismantle it all, flatpack reversed. Halfway through it. ![]() Also managed to find her a new garden gate on FB market place for Ł25.00 This was to be collected on Sunday in Prozac ![]() ![]() After packing the van we went to my place, Sally bought dinner. Pensioners portion for me, weird order, three pieces of fish in one lump. ![]() So after Bootfair today, I went to empty the van, followed by picking up the gate. Fits easily into the rear ![]() Then back at Sally’s place. Fitted. ![]() And the rest of the bedroom furniture, bed frame etc along with the old gate, ready for disposal. ![]()

Re: GRIZZ’s ‘79 - 2WD BLAZER Challenge over in London, England. “~It’s not a Project
Sometimes the stars aligning makes all the difference
Well.... I created one. (A wagon) Craig really wanted a Radio Flyer based wagon to drag around autojumbles and bootfairs as well as other uses. Thank Last night Sally saw one listed on FB Marketplace for Ł15.00 which is crazy low, 22 minutes after it got listed. So we jumped on it from here and got @CraigRK onto it. Today he did a detour from London to Streatham to pick it up. Happy camper. Couple of stations. ![]() ![]() Little Red Wagon on an adventure. A road trip really. ![]() On the train. Standing room only. ![]() Back to Leatherhead and into the back of the AMG ML500 donor for the 50 Chevy truck. Happy wagon. ![]()

Just a quicky.
Got home this week to another parcel from Jonesboro in Arkansas My friend Steve of the two Purple Hearts, had gathered me some plates that fit right into my box of interest. The RC Cola vanity plate is cool, as I used to drink it years ago in South Africa. ![]() ![]() Randomly other stuff. It is winter in South Africa right now. And COLD. I saw 37’C in my car this week. A friend sent me this pic, spotted on the way to work, yes, real central heating. Note the street sign. In South Africa, a Traffic light is known as. ROBOT...... ![]() New meaning to getting on your high horse?? ![]()

Re: GRIZZ’s ‘79 - 2WD BLAZER Challenge over in London, England. “~It’s not a Project
Thanks Bill.
Not a lot of pics of it in motion Bootfair was worth it A very good internet friend and mentor on Garage Journal in Australia recently lost the fight against cancer. He had inspired many around the world and will be missed a lot. Various mementos have been generated in Steve “1/2 Cup” Church’s memory. One of his things was to get Quality Shed Time in. Thank you Gazza in Australia for the QST stickers. @CraigRK obviously snagged one and Dennis Jones gets one too. ![]() Once I have decided on the right place, which may be inside my house (I live there and pay the mortgage) I will show its place of honour. Trusting Steve will approve. Continuing on the 54 Bel Air theme @CraigRK and I have spent hours talking about it and all the potential permutations of buying it. Including the cost of modifications and service parts and upgrades. Not cheap by any means but it will mean a decent safe car if it gets bought. ![]() More later.

Re: GRIZZ’s ‘79 - 2WD BLAZER Challenge over in London, England. “~It’s not a Project
The first load was 3 times that.
However, I have nowhere to create a big fire like that. COPY AND PASTE. Morning Andy, THREAD HERE: https://www.garagejournal.com/forum/...d.php?t=334140 These Arrived in St Louis yesterday For @CraigRK and @djones1 and myself. Thank you very much for forwarding these on to us. I suspect Dennis may let us know where his is going to go. Craig, who knows, he has such a variety of possible places to post it. Me........? Not sure yet, certainly indoors for starters, just to sit and enjoy, reflect, and talk about Steve’s legacy to anyone who will listen, there is always a chance to pay it forward in a life lesson for others. Thanks again for the effort you are putting in for all of us, making these and individually shipping them around the world. ![]()

A few random bits.
Dennis put up a long distance telephone to support the call box. ![]() One of my current favourite builds. Started out with a rotted out VW Beetle. BUILD THREAD AND MANY PHOTOS HERE: http://forum.retro-rides.org/thread/...-beetle-thread Resulted in a prize winner. ![]() Unseasonably hot weather has resulted in early harvesting out back behind my house. ![]() Really good yields this year. Enough to waste too. ![]() Even Harley was not enjoying it. Seeking coolness on the lawn. ![]() And after a stream or is that bunch of time wasters so far, I washed the Blazer this morning early and put it out front with the For Sale signs up. You never know, you know. ![]() ![]() Still a neat looking rear end. ![]() .

Re: GRIZZ’s ‘79 - 2WD BLAZER Challenge over in London, England. “~It’s not a Project
Thursday I called a mate whom I do not get to see often anymore as my job has evolved and the territory changed
However some friendships are cemented in simple trust and knowing who has your back. In this case, both of us know it. After 45 minutes of catching up on travel, kids, dogs, cats and the rest, he randomly asked me if I had a trailer. I thought he needed to borrow one, and said yes, I had a bike trailer with no sides, but he was welcome to it, and that I wished it had sides as it would possibly work better for him (he is not a biker, so would not be needing a bike trailer of course) So he replied that he did not need a trailer, but had one, and did I need or want one. He would send pics on Friday. On Friday he sent these photos, and I realised I would happily offer it a home, so I asked him how much he wanted for it, to which he replied: A Handshake, drink a coffee with him, play with Max their new dog and collect the two litres of South African Brandy he has had stashed away for me the last two years. Now I just need to get to collect the thing 30 miles from here, as none of my vehicles have a tow hitch. @CraigRK May have to collect on my behalf on his way here to collect all the treasure he has at my place. ![]() ![]() ![]() Friday night after a rough week at work my V8 addiction broke through and Sally and I needed to go for a decent drive in the Blazer So off to my local, serviced gas station where they still fill your tank. ![]() And then off...... Sally likes to take photos when I am not watching. ![]() Eventually back home, I parked the Blazer up over the street, in case a potential buyer stopped to look. ![]() On Saturday Sally and I went to Faversham to a street market, afterward we went to see mate Neil, who sold me my new welder a couple of years ago. He also sold @CraigRK a 75 liter compressor while we were there, into the back of the Focus it went. Then to the Isle of Sheppey to deliver the Radio Flyer race car to mate Aaron, and check out what he was up to. He pointed out the small skip and mentioned stuff he had tossed in there. Included was a good welders mask, about 20 hardly used micro fibre cloths bag, 200 very large black bin liner bags, and a load of random stuff I did pass on. Micro fibres already washed and dried. However............ This, came home from his workshop. ![]() Complete Porta Power tool. ![]()

In other news.....
Remember last years USA Road trip included Andy in Oklahoma where we cast aluminium and Alu-Bronze. He has been going on a bit more after I made a comment. Posted this pic yesterday Next up will be casting a gas pedal. Certainly will be a Marmite thing, to love or hate. ![]()

Re: GRIZZ’s ‘79 - 2WD BLAZER Challenge over in London, England. “~It’s not a Project
Got a message from mate Dirk (Maverick) in South Africa.
He went back there a few years ago from a cushy London IT job to manage AVOOVA (Google it) and bring his kids up in Africa. “Just bought this for the price of a pizza dinner with two beers for two in London today” was his message. He and the boys are currently building a teardrop trailer, a VW Beach Buggy and living a carefree life. ![]() ![]() He is also onto a very old Massey Fergusson tractor wreck for parts to use on his patina build. What a Thames Trader used to look like. ![]() In other news, Andy sent another teaser photo His furnace getting a next melt ready. ![]() Looking forward to the 2019 USA Road Trip now.
