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

So the lampshade seemed to respond well to the small heater under it.

Paint has dried to the point where it does not mark or dent, though I am sure you could scratch it off with your finger nail

So I fetched in the mounting bracket and a plank on which to place it for painting and drying, and proceeded to paint it red as well, despite planning white originally.



Done, mounted, now wait for it to dry over the next day or so.



Went to the garage agin, and fished out the last bit of the green and redid the edge of the shade, separating the red and white with a narrow band of green.

I do like that, and from the ground it should look good.



While at that, I mounted the Chevrolet sign I got from Darren a few years ago. It had lived indoors after being painted.



From a distance, up on the beam.



Nothing spectacular, but I certainly feel that I like it.

Bit of a theme coming out of here now.
