Theater is booked, raffle prizes are starting to pile up, and we are getting stoked for my annual movie night.
Raffling off spots for a Women's Ride Clinic, and a couple Companion Rescue (AVY) clinics.
On the side, day dreaming about a 5-speed in my Bronco to bring this full circle.

Installed @catfan eBay shorty offset HB bracket. Great product so far. Had to oval out the holes slightly. Bought a new reman 94-95 Astro HB unit for $250 (the one I had used before is over 20 years old so not taking chances).

Took my daughter and husband for separate drives in the bronco,(no back seat) for the fist time. My 4 1/2 yo grand daughter was crying when I left each time , though I scared her with the noise (351, bit modified with a magnflow exhaust). I was wrong, she was not scared, but wanted a ride.... I put in a booster seat and let her ride! Smiles and jabbering the whole time. Sorry, can't post the pictures, daughter does not want her face on the interweb. One happy poppop!

I picked up this gem today. Part of Jensen's Heavy Duty waterproof/shockproof series. I am 100% no top and had good luck in the past with their HD series, but nobody uses a CD player and such, anymore. This is Bluetooth and AM/FM only, but mostly BT. I like the old school look, and lack of fancy screens and a million buttons. I REALLY like that it is light weight and not very deep into the dash like standard head units are. I think it will be fine for my audio needs, which is 4 marine speakers I have mounted and an amplified sub under passenger seat. All waterproof.

That looks pretty cool. I also gave up on a stereo yrs ago as I kept filling it with sand mostly, but just dust was killing it also.

I went to an amp that did bluetooth and worked with my phone for calls. Hard to find one back then but it's still working good. Great to hear you drive yours!!! :)

Here's what I did AGAIN today... not quite as much fuel but hey, but it's only been 4 days and we weren't home one of them. :)

Gotta love gas prices!!!

last night was full of bronco projects. Power steering update on a customer's 69, got the old setup out without spilling a drop. Stopped because I'm a "while we're in there" kinda guy.. so he gets a fuel pump block off plate today.

Noticed my new aluminum radiator is leaking. I got almost three years out of this one. :confused:
Was it between the tank and core? Can I ask the brand?

I gave up as 3 alum radiators died on me. All same brand. All within 5" of the same failure point btw the core and tank. Buddy has the same brand and his is also leaking in the same location.
