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

Friday.

Last one of 2017.

Had a date with a lady, but this was the weather in the morning......

Needless to say, not much use for going to the beach, unless you are testing g umbrellas or rain coats.




So we cancelled our "date" and I contacted Neil "MyGasser" about some plastic pallets he had found for Craig my mate, and decided that today would be a good day to run Prozac down to Whitstable where he works.

In an unusual move, I stopped at the gas station and filled up, one forgets to fill as these things are relatively light on fuel.



Got to Whitstable and had a nice chat with Neil, then loaded the pallets, and a large section of show display carpet he had laying around, good for my garage, under the truck.



One of the jobs he does is to test every Mig Welder they sell before it goes out to customers, you are talking in excess of 750 and the last week it's been about 15 machines.

Obviously, testing welders can get a bit boring, so a bit of boredom relief creeps in......

Includes a dragon breaking through the base, a butterfly, sun, monster worm





And of course a bondage mermaid......



While I was there, I also got these bits.

Available for anyone who needs them at cost of postage and packing.

Couple of UJ's for steering column and a quick release base for a steering wheel.



Got home and unpacked the Little Van that Can.



Chuffed as always, this van is certainly Prozac for the Soul.

Miles of smiles.
