I have a four door and I've always thought: If it was meant to go fast it wouldn't be shaped like a brick. Go around, I'm pedaling as hard as I can! Watch for falling wrenches. You won't move quick when you're 100 either. My 0-60 is maybe.

I liked the deluxe roadster that was next to it. No pictures from me either.

I was able to move the actuating pin freely if the arrowhead shaped wedge is held down. I'll check the rollers this weekend.

Drum off and it doesn't bind. Light inward pressure on a shoe and it binds.

Brakes came from Mike's. I was under the impression they were already arced.

Stuck brake - I tapped the axle pin with a hammer and it unstuck. I still need to find out why, because it can't happen again stopped at a stop sign.

Switched to a marvel and probably will never go back for the reasons stated. It's also complimentary to my higher compression head.

I've only seen it from the ground, so I assumed apartments given some of the other buildings around it. The braces are very new, probably put up this past year. I certainly hope they were installed for structural purposes, because if they did it for decoration, they really missed the mark...

It looks like the upper floors are apartment with ground level storefronts now. Not seen in street view are the braces that have been added to the exterior. Breaks the lines and makes it quite ugly now.

Is anyone able to identify this steel trunk? Who made it and when? What would the original color have been, same as the car? Correct interior materials, colors, and structures?

I'm not a gifted picture taker. Only pictures I have of not individual vehicles.
