Re: Another Blue Chevy

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.

Re: Another Blue Chevy

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

Thanks Nate. It's missing a door and a metal spring clip that I'm not sure if I can find.

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.

Post 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 .

Re: Another Blue Chevy

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.

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

Post 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 .

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.

Re: Another Blue Chevy

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.

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...
