This year We went to Arvada to my Grandson's 4th Birthday party . Weather was nice enough for and outdoor party. We're hosting Thanksgiving this year. Pending everyone's health.

Last time I drove it to town was the 26th of Dec.. With no heater it has to to be a pretty nice day.

When you can drive it next without a heatr it will be all the more sweeter.

Re: Another Blue Chevy
 
Yep! Today was one of those days. Drove to breakfast:mm:, stopped by the dollar store, went by my Mother in Law's house. Took it for a drive down by the river and then went back to the house to clean it up a little before putting her away. Then while I had the shop vac out I cleaned up the Burb. After the sun went down I came in and changed furnace filters Did my laundry and changed the bedding on the waterbed. I need to go back to work to get some rest. :)

Re: Another Blue Chevy
 
I'm glad I got her cleaned up and put away. The weather changed , it has been freezing rain for the last two days. :( I'd rather have snow anyday.

special-K 01-21-2022 09:39 PM

Re: Another Blue Chevy
 
Me too! I say sleet and freezing rain are payback to all those who cuss snow. Gotta get something and hey, it is wintertime after all. Right now it is dry and really cold. Often we get that, then it warms up and rains. I'd rather have snow than 40* bone chilling rain. Yuk!

VWNate1 01-22-2022 12:54 AM

That Winter Thing.......
 
"I'd rather have snow than 40* bone chilling rain. Yuk!" .

I think I'll stay in the Desert ~ I had quite enough cold and wet growing up ;).

Another Beautiful day. Hauled some floral arrangements my Wife had put together to my Mother in Laws house and helped set up her new phone after we had gone to breakfast.

The Wife says Thanks Dale. She used to manage a Floral Shop years ago. Now she does it for special occasions and as a hobby.

I had a mouse pad special made, so I bought a wireless mouse while I was at it. I also had to replace my old laptop, it would no longer support windows7 Now I'm on windows11. I'm having a learning experience. :confused:

Went antique store shopping for a curio cabinet for the wife's kachina dolls. All I found was Cool Chevrolet stuff.;):chevy:

JK We also found a couple different glass cases. We came home to measure a spot.

Original Heater
 
SCORE ! .

I hope you install and use it .

Usually not hard to clean and staunch the leaks .

Thanks Nate. It's missing a door and a metal spring clip that I'm not sure if I can find. https://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/...1&d=1645936817

And the hub cap looks like the one I need to match my originals but is smaller , I bought it to hang on the wall.

VWNate1 02-27-2022 10:07 PM

Old Heaters
 
Yes, those often gone missing deflector doors ~ in my Nash Metropolitan FHC the doors are missing and they're necessary to make the defroster work .

Just polish the hub cap and paint in the bowtie in blue, it'll look great on the garage wall .

Time change has brought out the guys on Tuesday nights. We had 9-10 guys show up on our first meet of the season. We will do this (weather permitting) til we change time in the fall. :burnout:

The days feel so much longer than an extra hour of light this year for some reason. Great to see the guys gathering again

Cold and rainy but 4 of us showed up this week. I brought the Other Blue Chevy. :chevy:

VWNate1 03-31-2022 08:40 PM

Local Meet & Greet
 
I like your Blazer .It's no surprise mostly Chevies showed up ~ in the 1970's we had terrible rainstorms and I roll up in my unrestored but ever faithful 1946 3100 pickup, vacuum wipers slapping away, heater gently blowing hot air :chevy: .

I recall one epic tow job from Lake Tahoe to Los Angeles in a snow storm ~ 6.50 X 16" bias ply tires I thought I was going to freeze to death but the rig never skipped a beat .

Thanks Nate , You could say they were all Chevy. The 46 Ford has a 350/auto on an S10 chassis.

April 2nd I was invited to display my truck in the Canon City 150 year celebration as a representation of the 1930's . They tried to get 1 car and 1 truck for each decade. The oldest car was a 1915, my 1935 was the oldest truck.

Thanks! We had fun and saw a lot of people. The town had a good turnout . They had a Fireworks display at 8 P.M. off the top of Skyline Drive west of town.
