if I had a set of 4 matching rims I’d be ok with that, but at this point I don’t. So getting caps down the road won’t help if they don’t all fit...
Wouldn’t be such a big deal but to dig that orange 55 out enough to get to the rims it’s going to cost me a day of moving firewood and stuff just...

So I looked at my other 55. One has a hubcap. (Looks like a 55 but it’s super hard to see- I used a scope to get a look) The other two look like...
Here are factory correct 55 rims. (Little clips and no 4 tab) Down side of these is so far I only have 2 and if I can scrounge 2 more from the...
Here are the generics I have.
[ATTACH] Hey all, I just got my 55 coupe on the road (kinda) and it needs new shoes. I just realized I have 2 correct rims and 2 random smoothie...

[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] All original 1958 Oldsmobile. Original interior in great condition, motor was rebuilt. Trans may have issues, doesn’t...
Thanks for the replies fellas. I’m thinking I’ll keep an eye out for a door. (And keep looking in the woods) If I don’t find one by next spring...
It seems you are correct! I finally got sone time to go out there and dig around a bit. I found another hood which was completely buried in pine...
So last summer I bought a new house on 5 acres. Now the snow has melted I’ve been trying to located my property corners. Yesterday I came across...
Thanks guys. Weird that I can’t find anything on these online. I’ll have to pull one off to see if there is info on the light. They are so much...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] I just picked up this 49 deluxe today. It’s all original and unmolested (so far) and it’s pretty rust free for being up...
I have used Orange Lock and Key in The Circle many, many times over the years. They did tons and tons of old VW stuff for me so I am sure the...
No bako guys huh? I figured there would have been some HAMBers there. I have seen SD many times over the past 18 years or so. This is the first...
Mike Ness (social distortion) played Buck Owen's Crystal Palace last night in Bakersfield. It is the first time I have seen a show there and it...
Got one in my '48 and I love it. No problems at all. (and it looks cool as hell)
Amen, with the economy slowing and people not being able to use their homes as ATM's I think we will see a nice slow down in cars too. Fewer...
That is awesome! Keep in mind... we don't have to be old to be cool. I have been trying (to no avail) to hook up with some local people to learn...
Nobody?
That is where I go wrong, take it off, get a new one but then I need to install it! Those are the areas I get caught up in and they bog me down. I...
That is what I was thinking, it is not far from being an OK driver. I am just not sure exactly what things to focus on first. I know it need...
I have a dilemma and that is I dunno squat! I restored a few VW's back in High School, like 18 years ago! It has been too long since I turned...
So? You bought it right? Someone had to take pics of it? Didn't you get pics emailed before you bought it? (or did your neighbor's best friend's...
You've never taken pics of your car? When you used to live 200 miles away, you NEVER took a pic of your car? I like to give the benefit of the...
Man, I read all these posts and see so much cool stuff on here but I rarely post on these threads. (waste bandwidth and all that... not that I...
That is SO true. I got mine when I took my CCW courses in OC. That is a great book. (the one I had was for CA laws) It is a MUST have for anyone...
I feel for ya man, that is a tough thing. I had my place broken into a few years back. Lost about $80,000+ and insurance covered nothing. I have...
Yeah, that is one of my concerns. The fender hole has some play so it would not need to be perfect but really, really close. I am hoping someone...
