I had only driven a few years after I restored my golden hawk,
I had plans for a car meeting that weekend,on friday I had to leave my car in a garage
for a small repair.
Dan the garage owner should pic up my GH outside my work this morning,
after a few miles of driving my speed was about 60 mph. suddenly the wheels
start shaking, I reduce the speed and it was normal again,
I tried again and now it start shaking in 50 mph. I drove without a problem at a low
speed to my work.
Dan was waiting, and I told him about the problem I had, and I said to him:
you have to drive carefully Dan: and he replied: it`s okay Jan:
and he drove away at high speed [:0]
A few hours later I got a call from an employee at the garage and he said: we have problem
with your GH, big problem: I said were is Dan? he is in his house and having a whisky,
is it a joke, I said, no the brakedown wehicle has been here with your car [xx(]
When I arrived upset to the garage I saw a 3 wheels golden hawk outside,[V]
and later I spoke with Dan and he told me what happend, he only drove a few miles
when the car start shaking and the right front wheel flew off,
the car sliding about 100 meters on 3 wheels before stopping, he never told me how fast
he drove,you can see on the photo what was sitting on the cracked front drums.
A few days later I towed home the car and put it in garage and locked the door..
After a year I got new power to repair my golden hawk
