76 not a concern. They will pull through
The ritt is expelling some nasty stuff right now. So may have to do water change tonight. Hoping they do good though. The concern was sitting in LAX for an extra day due to them missing the plane. My wife about died when I opened the bag the ritt was in. It was horrible.

Reminds me of the Lil’ Red Wagon from 1960s NHRA drag racing days, except I think it was a Dodge. That’s going to be cool when you get her fixed up.

Yes, Lil' Red Wagon is a Dodge...I truly hope this one turns out the way I envision it, going to be a long build...probably longer than @JoshH 's tank build ;Hilarious ...not a lot of reproduction parts made for it, so I will have to fabricate a good bit, especially body panels,.

My wife and I went out for a drive to see the changing autumn leaves when we noticed that one of our tires seemed to be low on air. We stopped at a gas station to fill it up. The wife was a bit taken aback when I asked her for some change. She asked, “Why in the world did they start charging for AIR?!” I looked at her and winked, “Inflation.”

When we remodeled our old house in Lido Florida we used “closed cell foam insulation”. It is water proof and made a huge difference with the cooling bill. It also gave a bit of a boost in selling it.

We plan to do that same thing with the new to us house in Stuart, as the large ceilings and such are getting redone sometime this winter. It has the “starry popcorn” look lol. Plus if a cane comes through, no worry on leaks or removing it.
