Jack Davidsons shop originally was in Sanger Ca. We'd pass by the old Sanger shop every year on the way up to camp at Huntington lake 1960s 1970s

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

After driving my C20 for a few days hauling stuff from here to there, and then checking the transmission fluid, I found my missing 1/2" ratchet!

Yeah, and it's pointing to the a/c compressor you need to put a belt on and get to using. It's hot!

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

Too funny. It’s amazing how often that part or tool goes cling clang but doesn’t make it to the floor.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

Spark plugs? How about the socket? I was putting new plugs in my '69 Camaro many years ago and dropped the socket. There was a hole in the subframe just big enough for the socket to fall into. It was still there when I sold the car. No way was I getting that bugger out.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

Had a country neighbor stop by for a drink this afternoon. Didn't stay long or have much to say, LOL.

Our central A/C condensate drains outside the foundation to a catch bucket, use it to water small veggie garden, wife's flowers, apple tree and etc. Puts out about 4-5 gallons a day and it has been a DRY and HOT summer this year! Lot of towns doing watering restrictions and such. Some local wells are running dry and other parts of the US are experiencing TOO much rain. Rough year for our tomato plants for sure.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

My 2012 silverado armrest hs been broken for almost 2 years. It’s a common failure point so not thrilled about pick n pull, and nobody reproduces the armrest so you have to buy the whole panel which is $600 shipped or more. Hence why I haven’t replaced it yet.

Well, this armrest popped up on rockauto. I thought sweet! Even at $114 shipped I was stoked.

However, check out this fitment (or lack thereof). Ugh…
