Charlie Olson Posted October 11, 2010 Report Posted October 11, 2010 Today, at my Senior's Social Club, weekly breakfast meeting, I was approached by a nice, friendly lady, Gloria, who asked me if I would like something old, for my PLYWOOD, and not be offended because it was a used item. I assured her that I would not be offended, so after breakfast, we went out to her car and she gave me one of these: http://www.endtimesreport.com/Auto_Motor_Heater_Instructions.html I can hardly wait for it to get down to freezing temperatures, here in AZ, so I can use my new, old motor heater. I axted her why she decided to give me this antique and she said it was because I provided PLYWOOD as a prop during the car show fund raiser, for the AZ Humane Society. She was given the heater, 40 years ago, by her Grandmother, and had forgotten she even had it, until she participated with my senior's group at the car show. A very nice surprise to start the week with a big smile on my face. Quote
randroid Posted October 11, 2010 Report Posted October 11, 2010 Charlie, What a pleasant surprise, sort of like good karma coming back to you! Congratulations on rebuking the old adage about no good deed going unrewarded. -Randy Quote
Charlie Olson Posted October 11, 2010 Author Report Posted October 11, 2010 Thanks, Randy, upon further investigation, I believe this particular "auto motor heater" is actually from the 1910's - 1930's time span because it was made by the original Bunsen Company and labeled as such. Quote

BobT-47P15 Posted October 12, 2010 Report Posted October 12, 2010 That's neat, Charlie. Nice of that lady to pass it on to you. Just shows you never know what you may encounter next. Quote
