[FC] rear bearing

Tom,

    Thought I would take this opportunity to let you know your paint code 
and other pamphlets the Corvanatics offers in on it's way in today's mail. 
Thanks for joining the club and ordering the booklets.

Subject: [FC] rear bearing


I am restoring a 64 Greenbrier that has been parked since 79. I want to lube 
the rear wheel bearings before it leaves the garage.  I have read several 
methods of drilling and getting grease to the rear wheel bearings, my 
concern is getting drill shavings in the hole when the drill breaks through. 
I am sure some have had success at this but I am also very interested in 
hearing of what didn't work.  I have the original set on the van plus a set 
off a parts van I can do bench work on.  I am a machinist and have access to 
a shop full of ways to pierce or cut a hole (small dremmel type tool to 
grind a small slot?) shavings would be pushed away from opening but sealing 
the hole would be messier.
Thanks,
Tom St. Amand
