Cheers Guys

P.S. still on 9v and still driving on the same radiator, no more loss of fluid but it does get a bit warm in traffic. Does anyone in SA have a radiator I could buy off them?
Mate give them a wash with warm soapy water, use a fine grit sanding paper like maybe 800 grit wet and dry, use bucket of soapy water to keep sanding paper wet and sand the wheels. Change to a higher number wet and dry like 1000 or higher sand with soapy water till you see the wheels looking clean. Rinse wheels of with clean water chamois dry then get autosol paste and rub with clean cotton cloth till they go a black coulor, then buff off old paste and coulor wheels should shine. You might even have too use 2000 grit before autosol. You can always go back to the start and go again. To do this propley you would need a day per wheel, to get them looking ok now it will take about a six pack per wheel. Or Give them to a mate with a lathe and get him to do them in the mill.
