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

So after a few days of serious rain, cold and wind, today dawned with rain.

Eventually by 10.30 I managed to get out and start on cleaning up the load bed of the truck, as well as the spare wheel.



The tyres tread, like new.



Once I got going, the info exposed showed these are ream American made wheels.



Cleaned up nicely

Rear end.



Still bloody cold out at 3’C but no rain or wind at this point.



And done.



Coffee, followed by getting onto the external plastics, using Auto Glym products, opinions will differ, progress continued.

Bumper before.



After



Front end, sorry for the sun glare.



Discovered another added extra, the chrome grille inserts are also non standard. More value? Maybe.



And after cleaning and polishing the interior plastics, I was really happy.

Suicide door?

Only one.



Last job for the day was to get back to the carport and garge.

Been a few days of not getting down there.

Managed to do a load of little connected jobs, including packing some stuff in some of the cabinets after sorting the shelves and identifying the load of keys.



More packing and sorting down there tomorrow.
