That is a possibility. I put the hard top back on last night and tried to drive her to the garage for winter storage. She would not catch. Fuel is not flowing again. Tossed the car cover on for now. Will be sending her to the indy next spring for a full tune up and resolution of these issues. I have to get new shoes for her anyway. Hard to find a decent tire, let alone V rated in 14 inch. MBCA forums and Tom, from Classic center say the R107 should now be shod in a 15" or 16". Yeah, new rims... that will be cost effective.
