Jeff,

That's a bummer, all right. I'm glad you and your son are OK. Though, VB 
didn't help matters at all, wire wheels falling off LBC's is not a new 
problem. I guess it reminds us all to beware of those many issues that 
stranded many drivers and made these cars such a challenge long ago. Thrust 
washers, bad electrics, and oil leaks come to mind. 

I appreciate you having the honesty to recount this mishap. It's a valuable 
lesson for  me, my son, and many others. Come Spring, I'm going to 
double-check everything and let the guys at Motorhead give it a good going 
over before we go motoring.

Keep the faith,

Tom Burke
