Way cool car!
Mrs B says I'm a poor listener, or something like that.
That's pretty typical, I think the plastic shrinks with time. They're often restored, though, and can look really good when done.
That is great information. Regarding pressure under the car, I remember reading comments from a highway patrolman who was asked how he picked out...
Oh, that's interesting to hear from someone in the business. Do you feel like 17" tires are probably going to be available for the foreseeable...

Not a bad idea. Not every car needs to be stripped to a bare shell and put on a rotisserie. Too many cars which do get fully disassembled never...
