Re: GRIZZ’s ‘79 - 2WD BLAZER Challenge over in London, England. “~It’s not a Project
So part two today.
Unfortunately the weather did screw it up a bit. Cutting out the rust, one of the things I have learned since a long time ago, is like with cancer surgery, you need to cut deep. So cutting into good steel is part of the deal. Cardboard Associated. Design..... Translated into metal. Tucked in Tacked and. Then welded. Once all the seams are welded in, use the persuader to tuck the fold in closer before welding that in as well. Small spots at a time. Weld Grind, finish. Then on to preparing the next two pieces. Rot cut out. Next plate cut, folded, ready. And this one. And then came the rain....... A fairly serious amount. Enough to decide for me. Pack up, two plates to weld in. Found out one more thing from UKGSER Quote:
So that was it. More tomorrow, weather permitting.

Dennis in St Louis sent a pic of his NASCAR themed C10 trucks dash.
Wired up and ready to Rock n Roll. This is the look I would love to replicate in the Rockit. .

Part two today, racing against the weather, forecast as windy with a bit of rain today.
Magic stuff this Vactan, used it before. Getting it into spaces, may help long term to slow things down. Plates welded in, but scruffy, and ground back. Würth stone chip stuff added. Tried to get my hands into the back of the lights...... via the wheel arches, failed. Called it a day on the Galaxy, but happy so far. Other than the poxy lockdown..

Re: GRIZZ’s ‘79 - 2WD BLAZER Challenge over in London, England. “~It’s not a Project
Got these home last night.
Seller has a wing on the car he is breaking..... loved it. So it was wheels, spacers, and a set of wheel arch brows or whatever you want to call them. Saving them for another day. He had 175/55 15’s stretched on these 15” 8J wheels, looked fine on the Kia, but hope to make them work on the Rezin Rockit Cleaned them up a bit. So now the trick will be to make them fit the car. Adapters next.

Re: GRIZZ’s ‘79 - 2WD BLAZER Challenge over in London, England. “~It’s not a Project
Thanks to Ben, it was fidly but actually straight forward after retrieving my Torx bit with some BluTac on a stick. I broke the magnet version years ago.
Four Torx bolts. One 180mm deep in the dark undone. Remove top two but only loosen bottom two that hold slide in tabs. I undid top gour screws on grille and spaced it away with screwdriver handle. Move light out like this to get to modified bayonet type fixings. I bought a replacement bulb, except the pins are offset but it needs directly opposed pins. Thankfully I had some in my toolbox I made in 1981 for my first car. When pliers and two screwdrivers plus a plug spanner fixed everything at the roadside. Good old days. Bulb fits in stalk. Stalk is bayonet fitting too, only one way to fit it. Of course Galaxy failed on a sidelight as well I got a replacement. Regular type. BUT it had LED types fitted. So same process to remove headlight. This was removed. So now I have two different looking but working lights. Could this be a fail again? I dont care at this point. Only a rusty brake line left to be fixed or replaced by a real mechanic. Then retest.

Actually thought I had posted these pics up too.
Firstly as it stands...... tall. And second as I would love to see it, and how @joem83 wanted to see it. We know a load of stuff will need to be moved about to get this thing to run that low. But if nothing else, we will give it a bloody good go. PS: still like the wheels.

Re: GRIZZ’s ‘79 - 2WD BLAZER Challenge over in London, England. “~It’s not a Project
Busy with a planning meeting today, doorbell goes.
Get to open it and DHL guy waves from his van, and points. Parcel !! Contents. Could not wait for the meeting to be over. So thought I would just try it on a wheel. OK..... that worked, easy. Down to the garage and pull out the big jack, roll the Rockit back, chock the front wheel. Up in the air, off with the 16” alloy to just try the adapter on the 4x108 studs. Yup. Fits. 20mm added Spacers that came with the wheels are another 5mm. So total 25mm So of course I needed to see if the new wheel fitted on the adapter. Keep in mind, the tyres on them are 175/15’s that are silly stretched. Yes, it does. I liked it. QUESTION: How wide can I go on tyres on there rims, they are 8J or 8” wide. More in a bit, need to deal with something.

Re: GRIZZ’s ‘79 - 2WD BLAZER Challenge over in London, England. “~It’s not a Project
As is often the case.....
Once I got started, I needed to carry on. Looking down the length of the car, the steels hit the edge so perfectly, it just put a massive grin on my face. Looking down on it. Following this, it was front wheel off too. And lastly. I think the front can do with a 30mm push outward vs the rear that was right with a 25mm spacing. Wider tyres will complete the look a bit more, along with a hard slam

I'm enjoying your whimsical approach to the RR. I also really enjoyed that logo inspired shopping list. Any closer up pictures of that? Good work on the matter of fact handling of the underbody damage brought to light during MOT. Noted, cut out, fixed.

Re: GRIZZ’s ‘79 - 2WD BLAZER Challenge over in London, England. “~It’s not a Project
Mickey had asked me if I would paint the outer edge, facing his property green, kind of to blend with the hedge a bit, and the green roof sheets I had ordered.
So today in my “Lunch Hour” I quickly mixed some green and black enamel paints to get a darker colour. Maybe a tad dark, but I don't care as I won’t be seeing it. Resulting in this. Once the gutters are fitted, they are some dark colour, it should be OK for him. Still waiting for the roof sheets to be delivered.

I do not have a closer pic of the shopping list. BUT, here it is on EBay https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/174135513399 Yes, the car is 20 years old, England salts its roads, to be expected. I could lose $1600.00 by scrapping it, which many people do in this country, or fix it for about $110.00 which includes the brake line replaced by a mechanic and some of my time, and carry on using it as a van and utilitarian tool, as intended. I think that the fact that it is a relatively zero maintenance vehicle, and that it has saved and brought home free stuff worth a lot more than I have invested in it, kinda answers it all.

Feels like a PS
Fil sent this through late afternoon. Green needs to be darker I think. And more detail added. Got a message from roofing company, expected delivery date for sheets and fixings, 18 November, thats a long wait then.

Photoshopped by mate Fil who fetched it in Scotland for me.
If we can get it this low, and a slightly shorter, tilted back screen, I will be super chuffed. Just need some drum working space now.

Good news.
PASS Also, back to some pretty random randomness. I do not get Zombies and related issues. But a colleague has his birthday, loves zombies, we have to bake a competitive cookie as a work challenge. Baked and finished Just hope they get my attempt. .

Re: GRIZZ’s ‘79 - 2WD BLAZER Challenge over in London, England. “~It’s not a Project
Friday we had the clinical trial quiz, followed by the zombie bake off......
Challenged to do a bit of fancy dress..... This morning one of the new farmers tractors came out to play. They are large and do take up a lot of space. Anyway..... I had a few small jobs left to do on the carport structure. Started out with adding some support to the one side where a shorter 2.7 meter length of roofing needs to be added. So created a welded up support to be added to the end of the main beam. Thought that working alone, a support would make my life easier Next thing Mickey is there, he heard me with the big grinder, cutting steel. So I welded up the end plate and support. Straight up like a scalded cat...... So completed. And painted. Happy with that.

Re: GRIZZ’s ‘79 - 2WD BLAZER Challenge over in London, England. “~It’s not a Project
So today I needed to fix a small (Massive) cock-up that @CraigRK commented on yesterday.
If you did not know, you would not know. So the roof actually goes another 500mm ahead of where it ended before. Plan was to add the 500mm onto the new section made up yesterday. So today it was fix up time. Started by preparing some wood for the front face and supports. Got the. Supports on, a wall plate against the garage wall too. Trimmed the bottoms up. Front facade added Ready for roof sheets now. Gutters still need to be fitted. Weekend over, again.

Early start, foggy.
Stolen off FB Marketplace Just likes it, note the split front screen. Postman delivered a box. Sent by PedalcarJoe. Straight into my new display cabinet....... And a Rockit that will find its way onto or into the Rezin Rockit. I had planned to get to the Rezin Rockit as well over the weekend, but the carport kept me busier than planned.

Re: GRIZZ’s ‘79 - 2WD BLAZER Challenge over in London, England. “~It’s not a Project
Last few days have been very full of day job stuff.
Yesterday saw meetings start at 8.30 and last one end around 4.45 so not even a lunch break to carry on with the bits of prep I am doing. Today, weather permitting, mix some green up to get close to but a touch darker than Sinclair green and then post the one front line and posts green Plus do the skinny board in Red. It should work to form a basis for the fake gas station colours and make it easier than painting once the roof is up. Something like this.

Re: GRIZZ’s ‘79 - 2WD BLAZER Challenge over in London, England. “~It’s not a Project
SomI started early today, and donated my lunch and tea times to painting.
It did end up getting done in three phases, as the third one took some Hummming and ha-ing as to whether I would paint the front steel green. Masking off takes time, but keeps it tidy. Red added. That was meant to be how far I go. Typically, after work I went back and painted the front steel too. This way, once the roof is on, when you come down there, it will present nicely. Happy so far.

Re: GRIZZ’s ‘79 - 2WD BLAZER Challenge over in London, England. “~It’s not a Project
So between meetings and work yesterday, I sneaked out and started to scratch another itch.
Started to paint the rear of the green beams white, and the rest of what is grey now, will become white. If I can beat the weather today. In other GALAXY NEWS I ordered some Mercedes Benz alloy wheel centre caps....... Total cost, £6.95 delivered. Plan is to remove the stars to de-brand the wheels before fitting them to the Galaxy. I was originally waiting to do the MoT on standard wheels before swapping out the wheels. Then Corona happened, giving me another 6 months MOT time. Remember the spider caps I bought last year? [url href="https://s294.photobucket.com/user/niknakpix/media/France-Grizz-Goose/A89C0CBD-0BFD-4480-A22D-C462F178A94A_zpshopkps6j.jpg.html"][img src="https://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm90/niknakpix/France-Grizz-Goose/A89C0CBD-0BFD-4480-A22D-C462F178A94A_zpshopkps6j.jpg"][/url] Compared to the Benz item, which is 70mm this 57 mm spider ended up too small. [url href="https://s294.photobucket.com/user/niknakpix/media/France-Grizz-Goose/4719B5E6-6335-4CAC-8F97-84F22CF50E67_zpsblv1hxqh.jpg.html"][img src="https://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm90/niknakpix/France-Grizz-Goose/4719B5E6-6335-4CAC-8F97-84F22CF50E67_zpsblv1hxqh.jpg"][/url] And from America..... Remember Dennis’ NASCAR themed 66 Chevy C10 build. He bought a cool transporter to go with it this week. Excited to see how that ends up looking. Oklahoma truck, no nasty rust to repair. Paintbrush and roller awaits.

Re: GRIZZ’s ‘79 - 2WD BLAZER Challenge over in London, England. “~It’s not a Project
I saw some of the wheels I had found for the Rezin Rockit on sale on FB Marketplace for £350.00
So feel pretty pleased that I paid £100.00 plus collection for mine. I need to find some kind of centre caps, or a programme to 3D print a set for my wheels. Looking at wheel,adapters, I found these reasonably locally, about 20 miles from home. No idea on what they will be like, but the centre bore seems to be wrong at 55mm vs 63 on the hubs. But shows some are about if one looks. I am assuming one needs to still assemble them, fit studs to the adapters and then fit to the car. .

Re: GRIZZ’s ‘79 - 2WD BLAZER Challenge over in London, England. “~It’s not a Project
So yesterday morning, I started to paint all the greys , into white....
Within 15 minutes of starting, Mickey was here too, and straight up onto the shed roof. First coat on. So today started wet and windy, so I went to get some loo paper for lockdown and some food, in case I got hungry. Back home, it was still wet. By 2.00pm it had dried up, sun out...... So I decided to go do the second coat......... FAAAAAAIIIILLLL...!! It started to rain and with the wind howling an hour after I started, so I shut shop. Really pi553d OFF. What a mess. Oh, and of course I do dislike water based paints. Hopefully get it done before Wednesday, and have it dry before the roof sheets arrive. Chicken Fajitas for dinner, Sallys treat. .
