This is kind of a tire update,side shot Sat. and a rant on screw job all in one. I found and purchased a set of wheels with old tires for my M-37. Tires were shot but wheels were said to have been blasted, primed and painted. I could tell two of them looked different on the front of wheel but thought the best for them. Anyway when they were apart two were perfect inside as they were said to be but the others were ruined with rust and crack from valve stem hole. Turns out the seller was the one that had two of them switched on his truck prior to me getting them. Lesson learned i guess. After my previous questions in regard to tire changing i have found the perfect place that does them. It is "Free Service Tire Center,710 Eastern Star Rd., Kingsport, Tn. 423-207-5891" They are perfect with full knowledge of our wheel problems and willing to help any way they can.I highly recommend them for anyone in this area and willing to drive a little to have work done.The statue in pic. is one at our court house that pays honor the fallen and families of these during Civil War. Even in my home town it is not exempt from controversy of its presence. I think of both it and the old Power Wagon both just in the hands of custodians that hopefully will decide where they will spend the next seventy four years to honor both of their services.
