Well I was on my way to a show out of town and just pulled of the highway and the wheel studs broke off on me. The damage was minimal but the qtr still got mangled. The bad thing is that about 2 years ago the same thing happend to me on the way to the Indy Lowrider show but on the drivers side.

Oh well its more of a reason to paint it this winter

You sure you just didn't have Shane in the passenger seat causing them to break off?

nope I was all by myself........enjoying the scenery(cornfields) here in southern indiana. Thanks to ghettoblaster for helping me to get it going again.

that sucks man! how did it pull the studs right out? the first night i had my fairlane out i forgot to torque the drivers side front wheel and it stripped the studs and the wheel fell off, never seen the studs actually pull right out though. what color are you thinkin about?

That happened to me on my 82, but I was lucky and the wheel didn't come off. I drove for 10 miles with them studs broken.

 

[pink63impala]

that happened twice to me in the 63. once pulling out of my driveway,and once about to leave the gas station.also had one of my tie rods come loose as i was about to turn back into my driveway,after a ride down the road

 

[indyzmosthated]

well the studs actually broke/sheared in half

 

[Lac of Respect]

That happened to a 64 Impala my homie had a while back. He had to repaint the quarter a couple of times. For some reason it happens on early 60's Impalas a lot. :dunno:
