Not a mod, but a quick, cheap fix

My taco has been missing a hubcap for a few months now. I don't know what happened to it, but I'm tired of forgetting about it and having the wheel come off. I'm also cheap and didn't feel like buying replacement hubcaps, so I was tinkering in the garage, replacing the ash sweeps and decided to McGuyver a repair for it.

What did I come up with? Super glue, a cable tie, and a ratchet strap. Voila! I hope it works.

Looking for: Red MBH 26"(The Aristocrat), Chestnut-coppertone (The Estate), Glen-blue (The Imperial), and The Plainsman.

Might as well super glue the plastic cap back on too.
From now on... only accelerate out of the turns and those wheels won't fall off. 😎

Schaefd2,

PM me your address, I'll send you a hub cap.

Update: it's working! And the ratchet strap was only there while the glue dried. I'm not THAT jinky.

@Paul Isa, you da man!!
