22 Jan Upcoming Big Pete Appearances & A Rebuild of Blown Thunder
Work has begun on the strip and rebuild of the Blown Thunder truck and we are well underway with that now. A rebuilt stock motor has been sourced to go in when she’s done as well as tyres and a few other bits and bobs. Visit the ‘work in progress’ picture gallery to view the pictures along with others, or check a few out below.
Our calendar for the upcoming season is also starting to fill up now, with shows booked for the length and breadth of the country. Our Events page details all our confirmed bookings but do keep an eye out in your local press for other appearances too 😉
The front section of the body has been removed and sent away for repairs in sheffield
The top of the axle had been dented where the bump stops had been hitting it, 10mm plate is being welded alnong the top of the tubes to reinforce this area
We got two of Tim Barks' shaved wheels for the truck
As well as two un-shaved ones from our stock, these will be cut and shaved to match the ones from tim
when the truck is re-built we are running it with a low spec. re-built motor to break the truck in
The chrome roll over hoop from our old 'Heavy Metal' truck will add a bit of 'bling' to the truck
Here it is from the other side with the panels removed
Matching front and rear chrome bumpers will brighten it up a bit as well
