I thoroughly surveyed the entire salvage yard inventory of GM, Ford,
and Mopar vehicles. There was not a single dome-style 8-lug wheel to
be found. Fortunately, one of the salvage yard girls is a roller derby
friend of mine, and she'll keep an eye out for me, and was also able
to tell me about some other truck-specific salvage yards in the area
that are not open on Sundays.

Worst case scenario seems to be that I can put the "wrong" rims on the
front (right???), and there's an abundance of those at the salvage
yards. Between the two barn coach fronts and the spares from the barn
coach and mine, that would technically get her rolling, at least
temporarily and sufficiently unto the purpose of trailing her. I would
prefer some junker wheels so I have to do a minimum of
Three-Wheel-Monte.

Somebody asked that I shoot a walkthrough of my coach, so I went by
there. My driver's side airbag appears to be deflated, whether through
a leak in the bag or the air system. I was unable to see any air lines
to speak of. I also found three or four unused battery cables flopping
around loose in the battery tray. The wire that got overheated appears
to go from a negative terminal to ground. Perhaps while the engine was
running, juice was getting pumped into the non-existent battery, and
something had a short path to ground?
