The thread on this disc had been stripped so I drilled it out to 2.4, inserted and CA glued in a 2.4mmOD aluminium tube, then tapped in a new 2.2M thread, ready to accept the wheel bolt!!! and it worked!!

Album info

BTTF De Lorean collection obtained from an acquaintance & topped up with missing issues/parts
Paying particular attention to poorly finished parts on this kit - my pet hate being chrome plating over non-cleaned up sprue tags!
I think I'll be busy
