      If you like salsa and chips, try Margaritaville brand Mild Sweet Onion Salsa and mild means mild. Zero heat, just flavor. And no, I don't work there or own the company. But I am enjoying some while I watch your video. 🧅🍅

    A few years ago after my father passed we cleaned out his Chevy van he used when he sold stuff at flea markets and lots of antiques and junk. But we were surprised when we found $1200.00 in cash…
    RIP dad😢

    Silas, you need to research that steal penny. I have researched pennies lately and found that steal pennies can be worth tens of thousands of dollars. I'm not kidding! It will be well worth your time to do the research. Those were not suppose to be circulated because they were test pieces. They are extremely rare.

    25:03 That is the top knob from an old percolator coffee pot. It is made of glass so that you can see when the coffee starts boiling in the pot. The water travels up the center tube from the bottom of the pot, then shoots out the top under the pot lid with the see-through knob. The water then flows over the coffee filter basket and seeps into the coffee grounds inside, brewing the coffee.

    Sorry you had trouble with your truck. Also I love that old fashioned camera. My favorite thing I found in a vehicle is an old pencil sketch on a piece of marble or some kind of stone that my son did of me when I was 8 years old. People look at some man he had talent. Something else that I found in a local police officers good enough to retrieve the fingerprint for me. I found his fingerprint on the inside mirror you know on the windshield. The amazing thing was that it was still there a year later after the car was in storage. After he was killed. Hug your kids as many times as you can.

AND I have a nice diesel DURAMAX, but I could have never let the gas king cab sit if it were mine!! I'm 73 now and have little patience or believe it or not time! I enjoy the videos, thanks! Oh, yeah, you wanted to know what I liked best. Interesting cameras, and I wondered if anyone still uses them for anything?

  • @garylangley4502
    @garylangley4502 Місяць тому +5

    The Linhoff camera is an absolute top end camera. I didn't get a good look at it, but I'm guessing that it is a Tecnica Field Camera. It uses 4" by 5" film. Each one of those film holders has 2 sheets of film. There are other film backs available. I'm guessing that what you have in the case would be worth an absolute minimum of $2,000. I would not be surprised if it were worth $5,000. Linhoff is selling a new version of the camera body- that's no lens, no shutter, and no other accessories,- for $10,000. I worked in a camera store in the 1980's, and sold a lot of "classic cameras".

    You can fix it yourself. I’ve done many of these and look on line for the two wires that you tie together, which runs under the plastic cover leading up to the ignition lock cylinder. Unplug the mini black connector with three wires, cut and splice together two of the three( check internet for the colors) and do your ten minute intervals three times and of course once the third one is done, turn key off, wait ten seconds and start your truck. It works almost every time, unless you have to repeat again. You won’t have to worry about the security system anymore because it’s bypassed.

    I loved my 2002 Silverado. Check the fuel pump. They know to have bad fuel pump plug. New fuel pump comes with a new plug with 12 inches of wire. My truck did the same thing. I change the fuel pump. 6 months later it did it again. I then changed the wires and the pump worked and the old one did too.
