25.01.2022 Ok Couldn’t wait any longer....! I have opened the box! (Well, I left it on the back of the truck, and it rained. Cardboard fell off the package.)... Firstly, Gee was so so easy to deal with! Secondly, what a quick job he did! Thirdly, very fast delivery. And look how well he packaged it! Safe in the post. Fourthly, the price was right. I was just going to paint Chevrolet on the board. But I don’t have the time, and it would have looked shit. It occurred to me that getting Gee to make this replica Chevy tailgate sign to fit the face of my under tray drawer was a good option. Can’t wait to get ‘Tim the builder’ to router out a bit of the board to mount and recess this sign. (And then there is one for the shed.! Doubled up while he was set up) And then I will post better pics. A new sign made by Ol’school Signs by Gee https://olschoolsigns.com.au/ to add to my truck. Looks tremendous.

24.01.2022 Tim the Router man from Bespoke, just recessed the sign for me.

23.01.2022 And after a day working on the truck, I find that the shed cat does not know that I have recently painted the old truck...!! I think I have just found my new hood ornament!!!

22.01.2022 After a couple of weeks of fires around here, we have just been flooded for a couple of weeks.... At least the Chev is here to keep me sane..... Been working on a dual battery box etc..... Coming along nicely
