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

After last weekend and the spring replacement, Mate Martin sent this pic today.

Made me smile, because a certain @PaulY has seen this go wrong before.



After last weekends 10 hr session at 5’C in the cutting wind and out on the driveway, we shut shop and I had a hectic week, which meant I never cleaned up, or cleaned the tools that were all covered in 40 year old black grease, as well as all the debris from the days work.

So this morning after going to the Post office at 07.45 and then to Aldi for food as I planned on cooking dinner over at Joys place tonight (she has been ill 10days now, and I refused to go there and get infected) I proceeded to,spend two hours cleaning up.

The brake shoes that came out of the truck were at various levels of wear or destruction.



The top, cracked one had also worn quite thin.



Really pleased and thankful that all these “little jobs” are getting done.

Makes life a lot easier in the long run.
