You still need to attach the wheel to the chuck somehow. It's the inverted cone needed to seat the knock-off hub properly that nobody has. You can't center a knock-off hub using the inside of the hol

Well, I definitely agree about that. Shorter would be better, certainly. The radio in this particular Midget had a row of pushbuttons that stuck out almost an inch, right at a level with the shift kn

California stopped issuing black plates many many years ago (not sure when -- 1972?). If a car still carries them, it pretty much means it has been continuously registered in Califorrnia for that ent

I don't think that 30wt is your problem. I have always used 30wt in my OD. In fact, right now I am using 30wt non-detergent oil, with no problems. Anyway, 20W50 is NOT heavier than 30wt, so the argum

There should be a sort of large wide rubber band on the inside of the rim protecting the tube. Electrical tape adhesive gets sloppy when hot, so that isn't going to work (as you've noticed). I've hea
