We ended up with about 5 inches of rain since yesterday. My road is still
flooded a few miles down. Winds were not so severe. All seemed to be as

Best time of year to see NYC is late January or early Feb, if you don't
mind the snow. I remember Janet and I were walking around one cold night
(back when she lived there before we were married) and we walked by
Rockefeller plaza. Some guy at the door was announcing there was no line
and no wait
I have Vredesteins on several of my cars and like them quite a bit. I run
tubes in the 13" ponton wheels (1959 219) and tubeless in everything else.

Allan,
Trial and error and some common sense!

one direction or the other based on the load felt on some of the rollers.

Thats an excellent price already for a very rare car.
Not for the faint of heart. But I see a lot of positives there.
