Anyone know where to get some? I took the 145 out for a spin today, had to put one of the 145's old wheels/tires on it because it had a flat... I love how it happened after I moved the car up to Portland, haha. I'm going to do an oil change, put some fluid in the tranny, and maybe change the rear end fluid. I bought some Metal Masters for the front of it, but didn't get any shims with them. looking at Taylorautomotive.com they have shims for the girling cars, but not ATE. Dang. While driving the 145 around today though, I think the front calipers are sticky now, they weren't before. Not cool. Oh well! The gas gauge also is acting up now, going WAY up, off the viewing panel even when I filled the car up. I didn't have this problem before when the car was down in corvallis, but when I drove it up almost two months ago the guage first started acting funny.

Yup yup, so anyone know where to get some shims? After I do this stuff I'm going to move the car over to a friends for the winter/spring until I work on it some more and sell it.
