Hi all. So I was pulled out of the ditch and on I went. Through New York, through Connecticut, almost through Massachusetts when a tire blew on the '30. It was late at nite. I separated the cars and drove into town and tried to sleep parked at a closed gas-station. Come morn I searched for a junk-yard. Somehow I found one, asked the guy if he had a demountable-rim and tire for a 19" wood-spoke wheel. He did. Someone "up there" felt very sorry for me !! I bolted my little miracle on and continued. With about 1 hour to go a cop pulled me over. He asked where I'm comming from and looked shocked when I told him N.Y. He let me go. He felt sorry for me too !! With just a few miles to go the rear-frame broke. I pulled in my folks drive with the rear fenders grinding on the wheels, but I MADE IT !!!!! Took exactly 24 hours. |
