Re: Ratchet's Blazer - 1970 2wd with Original paint

Finally, Chris drives me to the VIP section downtown so that I can really start to relax and enjoy myself. Wynne (HuggerCST) was also picked as a Top 50! It was a huge honor being picked, and being able to park with cover trucks in front of the stage. I still don't think I deserved to be there, but hey, I'll take it!

After a LONG few days, I loaded up Sunday morning and drove home. It is parked in the garage so that I can back out onto concrete without having to worry about getting stuck. But now I need to polish the wheels more to get rid of the water spots and I believe I am going to make some temporary spacers to space the wheel tubs in about a half inch to try and stop the tire rubbing. I'll attack those things this weekend, since I am back in TX working again.

After talking with Ken (N2TRUX) downtown, I ordered some Adam's Metal Polish to try this weekend. He claims that stuff is the best thing on the planet for polishing wheels and getting water spots off. I'll let y'all know how it turns out.
