Re: B's 70 2wd Blazer

Well, I did make it to the show...5 days after it came out of the booth...boy was I exhausted. The worst part was the Friday night before the show. I finally got her running enough to drive it around Friday afternoon and wanted to give her a good cruise before the 1.5 hour haul to the show. After about a good half hour of driving with no issues, I made a u-turn and hit a pot hole that pinched the sidewall of the tires enought to cause a crack and leak air (not repairable). It was 8 o'clock at night by the time it started to leak air, so I thought my chances of the show were over. Luckily a friend had a set of 22's in storage with the same exact tire size, but I spent the next 4 hours trying to find a 24 hour road side assistance person that was willing to do the rubber band swap...it was kinda nuts and I ran out of time for more clean-up/prep for the show.
