Getting out and putting miles on your Chevelle IS Exiting IMHO

These newer Smart charger make me think of how many batteries I've replaced that may have just needed a Smart charger

I have one of those, and like it.
I bought it for my old 6V stuff because none of my other tender/maintainers would do 6V, and the 6V setting on my charger was not automatic.

I have a different model smart charger works well when I need something charged in a few days, for a fast charge I have a Battery Boiler 2000 to get the job done.

Called OPGI again about my 67 Chevelle 3 spoke dark mahogany steering wheel. It's been on order since August 2022 !
It's made by Grant and it's real wood, not fake plastic. The guy at OPGI said they had several containers coming from Taiwan
soon and he was hoping these wheels would be included.

I have the '69 "rosewood" style Grant wheel in my car, and love it.
It's smaller and thicker than the factory type reproductions, so it's way more comfortable to use when autocrossing.

I will use the big repro Rosewood wheel in my '55 and probably order a repro Walnut wheel for my '68 SS.

Bought 2 of each of these somewhat normal looking dog toys and 1 Humptee lol, I asked Kathy “Are giving all of’em to the Furry kids? She said No! They can’t have these I’m saving them they’ll be worth $ one day

 

[Shovelrick]

I bought a Headlamp for crawling in attics or tight work areas where I need both hands but still need light on what I’m working on so for $25 this 600 lumen with Hi Med and Lo beam along with UV light for leak dye and it’s rechargeable fit the bill, took it home to charge it up Kathy asked what’s that? So I explained it, she said That’s perfect for when I clean the dogs ear etc.,,,,,So tomorrow I’m going to Home Depot to buy one of these Handy Dandy Headlamps like my wife has……

I got a little something in the mail today:

For the cheep-o….. er, frugal gentleman out there I recently got these two lights at the Dollar Store and have been very pleased. The head lamp puts out a good amount of light (for a 1.25 product). Much better than its predecessor. The other light is good for a little work light. Takes either AA or AAA batteries, I forget.

Bought the tyvek hood assembly for my SAS system. Lightweight, no sweating and it keeps your whole head cool.

Guess I'm ready for the next round of COVID now.

Got 2 shipping containers delivered today.

This will help a lot to make some room in the shop and get things organized. It's cheap storage, but kind of ugly.

$2500 each plus tax and delivery came to $5700 total.

I have 3 20' containers and it's good to keep them off the ground for circulation. Paint does wonders and after a while they will blend in. Just make sure you cut additional vents so air can circulate otherwise you'll end up with rust and mold problems. Ask me how I know.

 

[Derek69SS]

I set them on old power poles that I got from my brother who is a lineman.

Put vents in them now before you put anything in them or you'll be sorry and pissed off down the road. I promise you if you don't you'll be sorry.
