siteunseen Posted March 28, 2019 Share #13 Posted March 28, 2019 We're having a "pollen blizzard" around here so I abhor nature at the moment. If only I had a Kirby salesman to vacuum this crap out of my life... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siteunseen Posted March 30, 2019 Share #15 Posted March 30, 2019 I'm stuck indoors until some rain comes through this evening and washes that stuff away for a day or two. Lesson I learned the other morning, do not take Benadryl in the a.m. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87mj Posted October 9, 2020 Share #19 Posted October 9, 2020 I wanted to comment on this post. I never saw a wheel in person that is the same color as those photos. In fact, I would go so far as to say the years have not changed the color of the wheel at all. The finish may have wore off in areas and caused discoloration but the color hasn't changed. Like others have already mentioned, the knob and the wheel were two totally different colors. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w3wilkes Posted October 9, 2020 Share #20 Posted October 9, 2020 In the 30 years I've owned this car I don't think the wheel color has changed. Car has only been used for "joy riding" and garaged since day 1 that I've owned it. The original owner kept it garaged when home, but did use it to commute some. I keep the wheels clean and think the wear of the paint on the wheel spokes shows some character and that the car actually has been used over its 50 year life and about 110,000 miles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
