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

First blood at the Bootfair goes to mate @CraigRK ‘s Coca Cola collecting.



Next up was my turn.

1.450 meter wide of upholstery fabric in blue at about 20 foot or 7 meters.

Cost........ £1.00



Add this £1.00 to the £7.00 for last weekends 38 foot or 11 meters of brown Leatherette and some rusty steel, and you my friends have a patina package.

Anyone got a cheap upholsterer or industrial sewing machine I can use...?



Then on to the next find........


Bought from our own RetroRides’s Simon AKA Rmad.

Dragon for 10p



A few more items, Sally found 5 books for £1.00

My other good buy, bought as part of my future planning, like the fabric and Leatherette

£2.00 for a Vance & Hines Motorbike Fishtail slip on for my next build, some road rash, but well below market price.







Desperately wanted this really old sign for £15.00 but only bought a small knife from the seller.






So there you go.

Total haul.

Coffee mug 20p
Electronic piggy bank 50p (online £8.00)
4 pottery bottles 50p each.
Two small Union Jack handbags 50p and £1.00 respectively
Red Wine bottle stopper Free, found in grass

Nipple cap tassels FREE, GIVEN BY A RATHER NICE STALL HOLDER.





And that was about it.

Nice therapy.
