Re: 1969 K10 CST Full Restoration

We installed the horn and new A/C vacuum canister that I got from Roger last week. As you know I had to replace the horn because our original one didn't work and our original vacuum canister got dinged by the hood. When I was thinking about how we were going to deal with the clearance issue on the canister, I took a look at pics of my 70 K20. The angle of the bracket was much flatter than our bracket...and also flatter than the pics of other KE A/C trucks that I've collected. Unfortunately it was the only pic I had of a 69/70 KE A/C truck with the "can"-ister version of the reservoir. All I had were pics of 71-72 trucks with the plastic reservoir. And a search of the the board and the internet at large was surprisingly fruitless. In the end, we didn't flatten the angle as much as my 70, just enough to comfortably clear.
