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

Not as unrelated as it may seem.

Remember the roll of vinyl Leatherette I bought last weekend?

Unrolled it yesterday to see just how long it is.



Well, more than twice what I thought, so at £7.00 for the roll, makes it cheap.

This is double so x2



And some more, you do the maths.......



Adding it all up, comes to 38 foot by 4 foot or in modern measurement 11.6 meters long and 1.450 wide.

Colour is a bit deceptive at this distance and angle.

Beer cans for colour perspective.

My friend Dennis has been hampered by the amount of rain in Missouri this year, but managed at last to cast the island for his Shell gas station yesterday, and again, it started to rain just as they finished the job.

He also finished an English sign, which in the USA means Burnouts





Almost done, final flatting was due.




The Blazer was parked up outside, sideways on my drive yesterday just in case someone saw it and was interested.

You never know.



And finally, how the day ended here last night.




Waiting for @Disasterbus to get here in half an hour.......

Should be a good visit.
