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

Lunch hour break on Wednesday.

Making this happen

Line On wall is bottom of the RSJ Level and new roof slope angle.








Mickey came to check up on the noise.

While I am intimidated by the big grinder, he is light as a feather and happy to climb on top to cut that down from the awkward side.



Went to the industrial estate and spent £9.00 on this.



Leading to this



Three of these new 10mm top plates.

Centre punched To be drilled to 14mm



And one of these for the 200mm post, all to be welded back onto the perfectly cut and angled posts to incorporate the fall of the roof.



Another job the same day was to screed the plinth the woodwork shed lives on.

Been bothering me for years.




Sally was complaining that the big table on the deck needed to be painted.

So I set her up to sort it out while I carried on with other jobs like painting.



Better



First of 4 coats of wood paint.



Now the chairs all look rubbish, guess they will need a few coats next.

No, legs were not painted.



Enough.
