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

Quick photo dump today.

Dennis in St Louis has been getting on with his 1966 C10 on a 2015 NASCAR chassis, motor and transmission build.

They have seen unprecedented rain and bad weather this year, so shoptime becomes a natural option.

The dogs are always in the shop with him, and Son Adam’s dog Cinch hates thunder and lightening.



Loads of panels made, shaped and welded to bring the C10 and Race truck bodies together.



Rear end.



More parts, panels made nd fitted as nothing is off the shelf here.





C10 dash meet race truck body



During one of the few rain free days, the GMC Cabalero (which I believe is for sale) did some garden work.



Getting here.....



Little criminal......



Getting on with it.

Steering and pedal placement.

Note the custom made gas pedal from Andy Martin in Tulsa Oklahoma



Bedsides in for paint at last.

Note the wheel arches needed to be moved forward to suit the race truck wheel placement.



Visitor at the shop.

Chevy, going on Ebay over the weekend.



What $18k buys you in axle hardware.



Inside and outside painted.



Back home two days ago.

Fitted......



Note NASCAR exhaust poking out in front of rear tyres.



Hope to see more soon.
