broke other toy

You know the old saying-- "If you are going to play you got to pay". Well I got to pay. Was playing with my other "toy"( Pro Street "56 Chevy) and broke it when grinding the back tires back to a round shape. Broke a custom axle ( spelled $$$$$$). O well Mosers will be happy.

Did your tire do any custom body work to your 1/4 panels when it happened?
C-clips suck.

No damage as I have "Ford" 9" housing ends on a 67 Camaro 12 bolt with 9" axles shorten and splineded to fit the 12 bolt. Just need stronger axles now.

Guess I'll keep looking, somethings bound to turn up.

New shop going up, need something to fill it.

He who dies with the most toys wins....and I'm lagging on the most toys.

Which if you think about it isn't all bad, too young to go yet......
