CARNAGE LOCKDOWN

> SCOTTY TAKES THE RUST-OLEUM VALIANT WAGON HOME, READY FOR SOME SELF-ISOLATION SHED TIME

AS COVID-19 continues to wreak havoc across the globe and government regulation changes day by day, we’re living in a time of unknowns. As more and more businesses are forced to drop their shutters, the Carnage garage isn’t immune from closure. Though we’re still in the clear at time of writing, there’s a very real possibility that access could one day be halted without much notice.

With this in mind, our host decided to enact his contingency plan by getting the Rustoleum Motospray Valiant wagon out of the workshop and back to where it all began:

Scotty’s garage. The old girl needs a heap of rust repair and bodywork, enough to keep Scotty occupied for months if necessary.

To get it home, the hoisted Valiant required some semblance of mobility, so it was time to partially reassemble the front end for a short trip across the floor. Though it’s a slight step backwards to be putting unfinished parts back into the car, it’s likely to be a necessary one. On the plus side, dragging the rolling shell back to Scotty’s residence gave his own orange wagon a long-awaited glimpse of sunshine.

Moving forward, we’ll keep making fresh Carnage at the workshop unless the government says we can’t! To that end, the boys have been working flat-out to make sure we have a bunch of cars ready to race when this shemozzle is over. At the time of writing, our Lightning Mcbarra MX-5 has a fresh green-top Barra fitted and ready to roll. The boys have also prepared another green-top for Turbo Taxi and are getting ready to fit our L67 to the VN Berlina.

All of which means we’ll have heaps of Carnage content for you over the coming months. Check it out on our Youtube channel, STREETMACHINETV.
