  6. Is that unit hanging out on the right side window - an "air conditioner" ?

    Or some sort of secret preformance device ?

    Jesus your brother is ugly. LOL. How cool you can do this with him. These are forever memories. How about posting a little info about the race for those of us that don't have a clue what you are up to.

    Is warm out. 111 degrees. Swamp cooler puts out 85 degree air. But not much of it.

    But it does appear he has a James Bond movie sound track, I can visualize him rolling down the road in the edsel now, with the Bond theme song blasting;)...:cool:

    Ive seen several swamp coolers but never actually seen how they work. Is it just a fan that turns as the wind blows through it or do you put water in it also or???

    Put water it. There's a cylindrical pad that lays in the water. Pulls string and it spins the pad, getting it wet all over. Ram air and evaporation do the rest.

    is the thermometer reading inside temperature with or without the effect of refrigeration?

    First day of the rally is almost done. We made it to Carson City and speed for dinner. Will go to Fallon tonight. Car worked great. The brake light switch died, found a new one easy enough. Went over the Sierra Nevada on Highway 4. 1471400007974.jpg

    I like to check the background of pictures, sometimes there's a story there, I had the wife take a quick peek and she spotted the same back ground object as I:) Looks like a 40's vintage travel trailer, I am just a little jealous:)
