Looks good Bob. Just how is Project Phoenix coming along? Do you have measurements/plans etc for the plate that holds the bogie setup yet?

Cheers

Hi Bob,
Looks good, at least you have your end of the country covered and the price sounds good,thats about $100 a wheel cheaper than up here , the only difference is we just drop them off and pick them up a few days later with nothing to do, I will be interested in seeing how you work out how to removie the old rubber, great looking job congratulations
Regards, Ron

Hi Cliff & Ron - thanks for your comments.

Cliff, re. Phoenix, Colin has all that in hand. I've been tied up with instrument panel restorations and the continuing landscaping up here so Phoenix has been sitting there gathering dust. But don't worry, there will more movement soon. Have to keep Ada happy.

Ron - I'm in the process of getting a flame torch coupled to an LPG cylinder. This is what the rubber firm uses to strip their stuff so I suppose they know what they are doing. If it works you guys will be the first to know. BTW Ron, do you own your mold as I own mine?

In the mean time everyone else, get your orders in, I need to pay for the mold.

Bob I think have hit on the secret of success.

"Keep Ada Happy"

As I have found the hard way, it is cheaper to do that, than a divorce>

If she only knew how much your inventory is appreciating, better still do not let her find out, its a shame to see a grown man cry.

Hi all - $300 later, after some hard bargaining through a contact, the LPG flame gun arrived. Ripped the rubber off a test wheel in next to no time. Pays to watch and listen to the professionals. So now all you potential buyers of our re-rubbering service, I can strip your wheels at a small cost, moreso for the gas as this is like a jet after-burner. And to justify the expense we'll be using this to burn the weeds on our fence-lines eliminating the need to spray poison.

Bob,

Please - don't start any bush fires with that thing . I wouldn't risk it during summer.

Now , all you have to do, is dig your own crude oil well in the back yard - therefore there is no need to buy it from mobil/exxon in it's refined state .

Bob unaware of Kioto, using a variation of the Wasp, or Ronson flame thower, stomps his carbon footprint onto the artificially green (is it astroturf?) Australian lawn.
