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

When you buy one of these.....



To fix one of these.



It is often,because you are skilled enough to produce one of these for your NASCAR truck build, in order to save weight.

And change some subtle bits.

Even if you kinda fail first time, and start again, it shows what you can and will do.







Gel coat mould made

One small bubble to fix.

Looks like Dennis is onto a winner again.



He also needs a custom front splitter to aid aerodynamic flow.

Anyone doing them for 66 C10’s ?



Back home, he and Tally offered it up to the trucks front end.

Looks right to me.

Next job: Build a glass fibre hood/bonnet to reduce weight.

Seems a slippery slope when you have over 800bhp under the hood, to start a weight loss Program




Clem at rubatrucks.com in Fayetteville, Arkansas also sent Dennis a steel Quuic Fill filler neck this week for the truck.




Bit by bit this crazy build is coming together too.

Soon it will be Black Lines all over Missouri.
