Greetings from Australia,
This looks the right place for my stuff. I have a 1928 traytop truck (Chev of course) and model LP. As I had never fitted tyres to a split rim before I decided to write an article about it - with photographs. Only problem is I cant load it in this note.
Can I send it to someone per email so it can be included. I think it might be helpful to some people.
I am not a computer person, but an oldie having obtained my first computer 11 years ago when I was 60.
I would prefer to send it to Admin or a Moderator.

Just read your article. Verry well done! Brings back a lot of memories of when I worked in my dad's gas station back in the late 50's. Those split rims were always a joy. The farmers would bring them off the farm and we would get to play with them. A lot of fun...
