Little update. Went parts hunting and found some other Magnum 500’s for the front. And I love Magnum 500’s. They’re one of my favorite wheels. So between the H50’s out back and the new fronts I’m very happy.
On a separate note, had the car out for about 50 miles yesterday. I had to run to my engine machinist about the Gasser engine block. And make a few other errands. I took the Hornet, but unfortunately I didn’t make it home lol. It started making noises in the rear about 20 minutes from home and I made it more than halfway from there before the wheel bearing came apart and allows the axle to walk and kill all motion. It ended up on the same flatbed that rescued the car when I bought it. I already have the car apart and hopefully next week I can replace all the seals and bearings so I won’t have to worry about it again.
