Junior Fueler's New Shoes!

[Straightliner59]

I was/am happy with the wire wheels I built for my Junior Fueler. Unfortunately, one of them began to fall apart. There's a local show, coming up in early March that I am considering entering the dragster in, but, knew I'd need new wheels. Bernard Kron had used some of Kurt Raitz's wires on at least one of his dragster models. Since I saw them, I really wanted to see a pair for myself. I ordered them over the past weekend from Ted's Modeling Marketplace. They arrived, yesterday. They perfectly fit the axles on my spindles. It could not have been any easier, making the swap! Here's a before and a couple of after images.

Way to go. Really a trim tight look on that rail.
