Removed spare tire from rear. Cleaned tire, removed and re-painted the carrier. Re-installed the carrier with new hardware. Although the spare tire has very little use, noticed the manufacturers date is the 13th week of 1983. Think I'll look for a different spare.....

Got a used tire and wheel for a spare. I haven't had one since I bought my van back in August. I had a tire peel back in September, but didn't blow out, so I was able to slowly drive it to a tire shop. Glad to have a spare now.

Also replaced all of my side markers and tail light lenses today with new ones. Had some cracked ones and they were all faded.

Tomorrow I'm pulling, sandblasting, and painting all of my wheels. Saturday I'm replacing all my door seals.

I would like to see a pic. I have a compressor I do not use. Anything would help to give the 4.3 a little more Juice.

Pulled all of my wheels. Pulled all the tires. Cleaned up the wheels with a wire brush.

Started painting them red. Should have them dry and mounted tomorrow morning.

Also got two new tires to match the ones I got 5 or 6 months ago. All the old dry-rotting tires are off the van now, and I can run them whites out now that they all match.

I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it. Groucho Marx
