    I walked into the J and if I had hair it would be messed up. But my cone-head is aerodynamic like a Prostar.

    A man with a head as ugly as mine shouldn’t be bald. I have battle scars, cone head, divots from mole removal, something that looks like liver spots. It’s ridiculous.

    These are what I pulled from the rear axle.
    20230401_104028.jpg

    One had tread starting to crack & separate from the casing.

    Overheated one, showing as this weird ness by the bead..
    20230227_102036.jpg

    & one had a patch, & wore out in the last 7k miles from being paired up with a new full tread of a different brand..

    Anyhow these have a nice fat shoulder which I hope will tolerate scrub much better, but only K speed rating for 68mph. Should be fine as I generally cruise there or a few mph less..

    The fella who shop I was using is retiring from the farming side, & starting to sell off equipment.
    Gonna start puting a few bucks aside. Made an offer on this beautiful 1975 C60. Think he said 350 BB? maybe a 366, 4 speed, 2 speed rear. The sides come off too, so I think it'd be the perfect new florida man grocery getter.. lol

    Nice. You definitely need to stroll through town in that.

    Does it have room to put a few coolers in it? On a grocery run, you always gotta get a few things that need to be kept cold.

    I had 2 moles removed from my head when I was 8 years old and a nice big scar somewhere on the back of my head screwing around in gym class trying to jump over 3 hurdles.

    The co driver I had at willow run was in his late 20s and bald. Showed me a picture of him with hair and it didn't look right Lol

    My girl works for Pitt at UPMC. She shares her lab with resident surgeons. We became friends with one. She obtained supplies from work and removed some BIG ones at her kitchen table LOL. She got some practice and all I had to do was install some outdoor lights. Who needs insurance?!?!

    Just in case anyone thinks I’m joking. 51DA5F19-B7DB-4E43-A5C1-A0B7C83ADDA9.jpeg 1ABBE16A-264F-42F3-A1A9-6830ADF0899B.jpeg 0F97306F-62B1-4620-999B-47C6F158A70F.jpeg
