Yep! That's the one!
Speaking of ice cream. Did you get some?Great John! Glad to see they went to good use! I know those grandkids will enjoy the ice cream! Mine do.
Yes John we did. The wife and I took our granddaughter to the general store down the street for ice cream! Thanks again! How's that van working out for you?Speaking of ice cream. Did you get some?
It's running great. Did have to replace a tire, but I'm surprised it was only one.Yes John we did. The wife and I took our granddaughter to the general store down the street for ice cream! Thanks again! How's that van working out for you?

I don’t do winter storage. Unless you count keeping the vehicles in a heated shop. 8^)Winter storage...a strange concept where I live. Last Christmas, the fam and I did a top-down drive around the lake! It was 60 degrees F! Of course, the next day, it got up to a whopping 33 degrees, but I got the top up beforehand as I put the Imperial in the shop.
Now that I have several parts for the Imperial that I've gathered over the past year, it's time to get that all installed! The brake issue has turned out to be a stuck adjuster, thankfully, and not a busted drum. But first, I need to get the restored console in the Coronet. Looks great on the work bench, but will look far better in the car!
Work on my Chevy Square-body pickup has been coming along slowly. I picked up a gorgeous stock seat for it a few weeks back. Rather than dying the freshly-reupholstered black seat in Tan, I'm installing a tan saddle-blanket cover on that; plus I need to pull the dash pad out and dye that Tan, as well. Then Dyna-mat for the floor, new carpeting, and a new t/s switch, and that will be ready to go and drive a bit.
I have a propane furnace with a 1000 gallon tank. I also get a bit of heat from the14 200 watt, 30,000 lumens drop lights.I wish I had heat! Maybe that will be a 2024 improvement - an oil heater in the corner, plus spray insulation on the walls. I have that crappy cell insulation with an R-value of maybe 6, and it's all peeling off the walls after 20+ years. It's done its' job, I guess.

I also installed an eco-bee thermostat and have WiFi in the shop. I can monitor the temps and make adjustments remotely.
I’m looking at putting in a few wall mounted air conditioning units, that would minimize me running ducts.
