Let’s see the 442
I have 2 sets. The original 15x7 Ralleye stockers, a 1 year only wheel. A set of 16x8 Chrome Wheel Vintiques with 255/50/15 Comp TA rubber. The 50 series tires make it sit just right, IMO. You are looking at the stockers. My BIL is a sticler for originality.
My wife' father bought it new in '65. 98K on the clock... Keeping warm in our condo's garage.
What's the tire size on those stock wheels if you don't mind me asking?
In 1968 you got F70-15 bias ply rubber, I believe. The BFG Radial TAs in the pic are 235/70/15 as I recall. Pretty close to the original size back then.
My favorite design of them all. To me a beauty in just about any color. I know you likely take it out to keep the juices flowing once in a while. I hope when you do, on occasion you mash the pedal and come close to burying the speed-o! Blow the carbon out and hold on to your cap/hat!
Years ago I asked my BIL, who lives in Gig Harbor, WA to come and get the car. It took up garage space and I had no time to finish it. Paint and mechanicals were done; it needed a new top and to finish the interior. I had purchased most of the materials, including the new soft top. Mark is a true craftsman and he has room.My favorite design of them all. To me a beauty in just about any color. I know you likely take it out to keep the juices flowing once in a while.
