    I thought the Fed Ex guy was going to let me down at work today, when he only dropped off my rear rims only . (What the %$#@ !) Well after a hour he came back with guess what the fronts ! Yee Haa ! Oops I missed them, sorry... Couldn't wait to get them over to the tire shop and mount'em up.. Just got back in from the garage, thought I would share.

    That makes me want one of these. Was never that crazy about '35/'36's till recently, but that really looks right.

    well, so much for a spin down to R C N this evening. The 35 developed some kind metal on metal noise. Wrist pin ? My friend Josh took the valve covers off, and all the rockers seem to be operating fine. The car sat for a month, and before that went and had exhaust done, and drove back with out any hint of a engine noise. The car runs a muncie 4spd, with hydraulic clutch.. I was think maybe something with clutch fork or t.o. breaing making noise... Bummed for sure.
