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

Long day in London


With the “New Improved Train Service” it now takes me an extra 30 minutes door to door on my original 2 hr commute and my return trip is three trains including a 20 minute wait for one. Into London is two or three trains too.

Service is a word used in Animal Husbandry too.......... go Google that.


Got home and the only solution was garage time.....

After.



Took an old 32/36 ring spanner, removed an inch in the length



Glued together.



Welded to the front of the frame, which fitted under my welding table after I had modified the wheel mountings to gain 25mm for it to roll in there, rather than raise the table.

Spanner is a handle, but also place to hang my grinders when they are not used.

Second King Dick spanner added to stop them pivoting under the table.





Done



Paint next.

Floors got Matt black.

Frame, Red of course.





Two coats of red, done by 8.30 pm



And a photo taken this morning.

Assembled.



Yes, I am very pleased with the result

Cheap tools.
