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:

I added an inside rear view mirror and one to the passenger side too :metal:. I also connected my electric choke for the first time since April of 2020:o.http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...3&postcount=42

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.

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:

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.

That had to be fun and an honor to be asked.

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.

You were talking about the video , right ? Cause the fireworks just went boom. ;)............ My guess is that the video would sound like... the passenger saying OH $HIT...OH $HIT...:lol:
