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

For those still interested in how this build is progressing……

Craig sent these this morning.

The two foundation holes for the concrete pads and brick raised edges have gone down.


I think the biggest problem is going to be to find some helpful people when the walls have to be raised and held in place, the first corner is a minimum of a 5 man job as the panels are a 4 man lift and carry from where they are waiting.

The roof gables and panels will be a many handed affair as well.

Of course finding help…… THAT is the problem.

CLICK PIC FOR VIDEO.





Membrane down in the Stables (now it will become a workshop and office) and first bit of type 1 to keep it in place.



Trust me, it is a large piece of real estate.



And then the second concrete pad will go down here.

Next to the house, and be known as the shed.



This used to be Craigs “Bike Garage” where he lived before.

Currently stacked along the side of the house, awaiting assembly.

Pity his son is in Ireland at University.

Hopefully it will come together.
