Well that was a long day.
Went through the caravan end to end, replaced lots of parts,got all the safety stuff taken care of.
Winter wheels cleaned/painted and ready to go on wife’s car.

1 oz @ 60 mph exerts a force of 8# on the heavy side of the tire.
I always believed that an off-balance wheel causes accelerated

Just doing what I do
As I stared at the calendar images looking for things that need to be adjusted, I did this one.
I wonder what I will do with it?

Thanks, I’m pretty happy with it...especially since the image I started with was little more than a fuzzy postage stamp.
I’m getting better with my techniques to take horribly fuzzy small images and salvage them into something useable.
It’s easy to use good images to work from...but there is unmined gold in the crappy little fuzzy ones that make up the vast majority of what is out there.
This particular image couldn’t have been used without great time and effort to salvage it. Well worth the effort since cars like this aren’t around much anymore, much less have decent photos of them. The image I worked from is at least 30 years old.
Thats so cool. Like me ,scraping off the crud in an attempt to bring something back from the land of the lost.
Damn... The 66 4 speed Barracuda was sold today.... 
Looks like the 65 will be considered... Here's a video of it running....
Didnt feel like an extra hour.

A guy I'd sent a PM to last May regarding MITP responded yesterday. He said the event is going to be held at Lake Elmo this year.
I send a email to the Director of MITP asking for clarification. I'll let you know if I get a response.
I guess I'll make another hotel reservation there, and wait to see what they're doing.
