Are those water pipe spacers holding up the top radiator mounts?
Whatever it is looks like it could let the radiator rack/twist.
Can't imagine that being healthy for the end tanks/caps seams.
Or letting it shift a bit forwards or backwards.

They made less than 5000 69 blazers and less than 12000 70’s 69’s are pretty rare!
Wish I would’ve been interested in the 69-72s when they were cheap and available. My brother had two of them (both nice & rust free) and only paid about $3k for them in the late 90s. This is the one he totalled… it had a 454, sm465/np205, & 3/4 ton axles.

Got my leg and back workout in this morning.

I offered a farmer friend some help moving pumpkins from the field to his farm stand. I figured, I drive past his place on my way to work, so why not offer to haul a load for him? Between his truck and mine, we pulled 102 pumpkins this size out of the field. I guess he gets $12-15 each.

Him and his wife usually do all of it together, but she has been fighting cancer and the chemo has her out of the fight for awhile.

What did you come home with? Do I need to come down for dinner?
Sampled their georgia peach and apple/gouda. Both were good, so had to get some of the apple/gouda for the wife along with what they call cherry blossom. Picked up regular, jalapeno, bacon cheddar, and a couple others I can't remember. I put them in the freezer when we got home so I will have to go look later. Also stopped at a bagel shop on 39th street after KU medical and brought home an assortment of those as well.
