Sounds like an adventure.   If it made a shakedown run like that
(pardon the pun) with no complaint other than a little scuttle shake,
it sounds like you got a good one.

Drive it over to Hendrix Wire Wheel in Greensboro, NC and they will
balance the drums and true the wires.  It should fix the shake.
