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

I popped over to one of my neighbours who is building a retirement car.

His little shed....







Edge drawn onto the plates.





Tested on a bit of previously rolled scrap, the inverted J or walking stick was my first attempt.
In order to get the feeling as I have never touched or used a bead roller.



Starting out with the roller.



First one done.

Happy with that.



Back home, just laid out.

Bit of fine tuning before welding together.



Next up, paint part of the rods with Hammerite, try leave it alone before threading the nets on, and then weld frame and plates together.

And then paint the lot with Hammerite.
