Temporal spare...who cares....

Recently mounted spare tire on aluminum rim whick apparently leaked...back to steel one for now...Aluminum rims up here take offense to plus 12 - minus 12 ( C ) mood swings by Mother Nature....The rim treatment does not cure right when the tire is mounted as a spare as it does not get to heat up..

Went down to see my van. Looking better then the pics showed, but in the same shape as last reported.
Did make headwind on the color, colors of the graphics, and the graphics themselves. Matt is going to make up a detailed drawing (We did a rough sketch) and then paint up a panel to see if all the colors, the colors of the graphics and the graphics themselves will mesh together and look right. So hope by next we I will know and see the results. Can't wait!!

It is better to have Van'd once in your life, then to never had Van'd at all!

Well I have been accused of diagnosing and operating on vans for some decades now.....

As far as a real Doc goes, my secondary MOS was medic, and I currently hold First Responder first aid certificates so I can do more than some first aiders can...... You have to obtain your own pharmaceuticals though as I am not a dispensing Physician
