    So sad

    I much as I hate to admit it.  I had to jump start the 67 today. I broke my left leg a couple of months ago.  So have not been driving it.  Although I can walk on my leg ok. For some reason working the clutch is still painful.

    Battery Minder is a good thing when they're parked, Steve.  They not only keep the battery charged but also keep it in good condition by de-sulfating the plates.
    Sure hope that leg gets back in shape soon.

    Sorry to hear that Steve, and both of those things suck. Ditto what BB said about the charger. I've got a Schumacher with tricle charge which I use when the 69 is down for extended work.

    Hope you continue to heal up! Maybe working that clutch pedal is good physical therapy

    Anyway I picked one of these up when they were on sale on Amazon, think it was like $29.00 then.
