    She's gone but not forgotten.

    First Aircraft Stripper, then adhesion promoter, then good ol' Krylon. It's not flaking off the wheels at all, but it's coming off the lugnuts. That's some hard ass chrome on those. Gonna have to get some black ones later, when the checks start coming in again.
