That wheel and tire looks like they've taken some harsh hits.
Yeah crazy part is its like that on both front wheels, the first bend happened literally on the first drive with no hard pot holes or anything. I personally think there is an issue with the wheels after being powdered, but MHT said they didn't know of any issues and wouldn't warranty them

Just replaced the bent front bumper and removed the ugly rubber gove mandated enhancements front and rear. Looks WAY better!

Where & what goodies could they still have?
Dansers in Blairsville. 82 GP I think & I took most of the good stuff. The hood is good. There might be a usable piece or two of rocker chrome. The interior is trashed... nothing left in there. Washer & coolant bottles are okay I think. There are two El Camino's there too but they're rough & picked over.

I saw that one down there the last time I was there. All those missing or cut remote mirrors in the "vintage" section, mostly my work.

Yeah I know nobody cares, but if anybody were to care, it would be you guys.

Gave Olds Cool a once-over for fluids and tire pressures, loaded up the trunk with the detailing supplies and chairs, and topped off the tank with fresh 93 octane dino juice.

Going to the first out of town show bright and early tomorrow morning. 5 am here we come!

Today. . . Was a 2 hour wait at a very busy Decker Auto Glass shop, but it's got a new Wind Shield and to boot I got a lesson on how the Chrome Trim comes off too. Worth the wait but still a pain.
