Re: Grizz's Redneck Express 1966 Chevy Short Fleetside BILLYBOB

Thanks Don, Free fire proof/retardant overalls are a good thing, I have set myself alight once before, years ago, welding upside down under a Sandmaster race car.

Thanks to mate Martin for ordering our shocks n springs from Brothers who have supplied at their April sale price.

I guess for the American readers we need to put things in perspective.

Just on combining shipping, we save about $110.00 to the UK.

I do not remember the total price you paid, but once we have landed the parts, it comes to about $730.00 once import duty and tax is added for the parts, so about $182.00 or in English money £107.00 per corner.

My trucks springs were lowered with a heat torch, so the ride is far from perfect or correct.

I felt that the suspension is a safety item, so needs to be set right when I start my teardown and rebuild.
