I have a question before I vote. Is the goal to remove only the wheel? Or can other parts be attached to it?

bluevetteman...

I also voted 6, but I don't know what makes up a '61. Your *5* is probably right if........ I guess we will see.

Best bets *2* will increase as the Arizona crowd comes online. Odds are they left something off anyway and 2 might do it. :thumbs:

PS: And this post is from the Texas owner who couldn't figure out why there was not ignition electrical stuff working without the *ignition* wire hooked up. :cheers:

(Edited Part) Corrected dumb-azz spelling only. Thinking I have Arizona heritage.

Does a bolt count as a nut? in other words do you mean how many fasteners must be removed or are we ignoring bolts and counting them as zero?
