Re: GRIZZ’s ‘79 - 2WD BLAZER Challenge over in London, England. “~It’s not a Project

Many of you will realise I am the pretty one in this build.

Nick is the brains.

But rarely, I come up with a goodererer idea.

Case in point, fabricating or making up a switch or valve for the heater to turn it off started out as a complex thing, cables, levers, brackets etc…… you know the drill.

Then I suggested why not just add a simple tap into the mix.

On/Off

£12.00 of the Queens English Pounds vs a load of faffing and fabrication.

Mounted on the side panel under the dash.

Ladies prerogative when feet are freezing.



While at Car Builder Solutions I saw this Cod-piece.

I need a used one from a scrap car, the one in the donor was completely torn and rotten.

Quite phallic in a dark dungeon kinda way.



Spent £82.00 inmthe end.

Including full,size headlight bowls and chrome trim bezels.

The ones with the cut awy backs are specific for Land Rover Discovery.


Got home and did a bit of assembly.



Later, after walking Bonnie the dog, Sally popped in to say hello before heading home.



So I showed her what it looks like, have to say it works for me.





Because there was no Sally for dinner, I managed to stay down there till 8.45 doing some little cleaning up jobs.


More about that later.
