It has been a long day, this was the last of three lug nuts that got cross threaded. Thankfully all the bad studs are in wheel adapters and won't be re-used.

New wheels are on and I'm ready for Goodguys Pleasanton tomorrow!
no problem, all we require are new pictures of your car. and wheels!

I wish I could make the show but I have a few projects that need attention....hey that orange 66 convertible Chevelle we built should be there. Lic reads ICJELAC
