Hello Klaus,

Unfortunately this wheel had already been cracked, welded, straightened and was now bent in a different area. The wheel shop price to straighten was reasonable but if the previous weld opened while working on it the total repair would have been much more than the repro Mirzam wheel I bought new.

Lots of potholes in Memphis. She tries to avoid them but they're difficult to spot as low as the C70 sits.

I just R & R'd the T belt and radiator hoses this past weekend. Wow, what a PITA that hose job is.

Lord help me if the hardtop convertible ever needs repair.

When her spring semester is out and she's back home for the summer I'm selling this car and buying her a used Jeep Cherokee XJ. The older boxy style. My son has one and it's like an old Volvo. Bomb proof and easy to do regular maintenance on.
