Tire repair update:

Both tubes were leaking, one at the valve stem, one in several places. Each tube had 2 very old patches. The repair guy said the tires did not look that bad and that he could put them back on without a problem. He cleaned up the rims and the tire beads. One stem hole was enlarged by rust. We rigged up a rim stem hole patch with a large 4" Aluminum washer pounded to match the curve of the rim. Then Held in place with some JB Weld. So I got away with only two new tubes (for now), refilled with CaCl. Took about 3.5 hrs. Now we are clean, dry, and good to go. ;)
