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

So an uneventful flight with Virgin Atlantic from Heathrow to Detroit Michigan.

Miss Katy had packed me a Goody Bag with all sorts of snacks n treats as well as travel sized hand wipes, ear plugs and tooth paste.
Just how thoughtfull.
She flew out to LA as well yesterday for a holiday with other friends down the coast.

Found these in the bag, with special message added while waiting in Detroit to get on to St Louis my final destination.

Frog reference in our Nomance is about kissing too many.



Modern Short Bus??



Low sun messed with pic but you get the idea.



Once Dennis picked me up at the airport at 4.30 we hit afternoon traffic and the residual of an earlier wreck on the motorway.

So it was easy cruising, windows down. Chatting, catching up.



He decided that as the traffic was a bit rubbish, we would swing by one of his friends, Roger and Debbies place for a few beers and to look at the car he recently painted and is helping Roger build.

Hell Yeah !!!

Beer o Clock.



1970 Baracuda was a hacked out shell when Roger found it.
Dennis did the bodywork magic.

Work in Progress.



Motor??

440ci Mopar stroked up to 471

WTF !!!? Sounds perfect to me.



Nobody knows what Roger has spent on this car so far but if you look at the lake he built in front of his home, you get the idea.



Love ke herding cats this photographing people.

Left to right.

Dennis, Debbie with moustache and husband Roger. (They were headed to a "Moustache Party" later)



More of Rogers cars to come in a bit.

He likes wide tyres.

Bye Bye ..........
