  1. If you are going to flip this probably isn't the car for you. Chevies and Mopars are way more lucrative. If you are going to own and drive something different than all the bellybuttons at the shows, then this might be for you. Sounds like a really cool find. PIX?
  2. It was quite an ordeal as the rear one took some persuasion to get the bent up rim off and the steel belt got caught up i the drum so I got to do a bearing check to get it all unwound. I got her to the shoulder as soon as felt the tire let go. Surprising how fast one can ruin a rim. In addition to checking pressure I urge you to carry a four way and hit the lug nuts on all wheels before you begin each morning(Ask me how I came up with that ) and do a visual inspection of each tire at every stop. As you can see we caught this one and I got to change it on a nice level parking lot instead of on the side of the road, AND got to enjoy an ice cream as it was at a dairy queen we stopped at for a treat. Also make sure what ever jack you carry can actually pick up your loaded unit and you know where to place the cradle to jack. No sense in bending up your trailer.
  3. Not much help when this happens. Bring two spares, you never know when the front will take the rear with it.
