Painted the fenders for the baja last night, they came out too nice, which will make my OCD a** take off the driver side and do them so they match... LOL

 Well, last weekend, took car and trailer to the Hagley Car show in De,   amazing cars there, steamers and all,


         Bob was really appreciated - always a crowd around him and the trailer. Had a few people  - mostly kids sit in him and do the horn and semaphores....



 . Few other bugs there also

Got my new clamps and pea shooters today.  Any suggestions on what best dissolves rust on the old clamps to get them off? WD 40 or something stronger?

  People say PB blaster, but I think WD is just as good, and if I remember correctly, Jack thinks it's all a bunch of hooey..because of inablitly for the liquid to penetrate..
 
 Cutting the bolts off is an option... just need to do one of the bolts, then you can get it off......  I just take torque them, and they usually break..which is fine..

I better eat some spinach then, because I don't know if I have the brute strength to torque those babies off.   I'll try tomorrow, joints willing   thumpup)-

Karen,
Jack is right. PB Blaster is by far the best. It dissolves the rust. Over the many years  %$oldcit of experience I have tried lots of types of rust lubricants. None have worked as well as PB Blaster  thumpup)-
By the way, I know you will follow the directions on the can!

A pretty good replacement when no PB Blaster is available is Charcoal Lighter
