Need Help Finding Original 1969 Air

A friend of mine is restoring a very rare truck back to 100% original concours condition. The truck just happens to be an ultra rare 1969 COPO longbed with 427 and 4 speed Muncie. The truck was specially ordered with a passenger alternator that was dealer installed for better weight distribution at high speeds.

This truck was specially ordered on April 1st, 1969 from Possum Creek Chevrolet near Chattanooga, Tennessee. It is a very pretty Butternut Yellow (SPID Code BUTT), and still retains the original color coordinated dog dish hubcaps.

He has all 5 of the original tires that came on the truck in 1969 in the barn. Other than a few dry rotted cracks here and there, they still look pretty good with a heavy coat of Armor All.

To gain maximum judging points at the next Concours de 'Pigeon Forge show, he is going to re-mount them onto the factory COPO wheels.

The problem is, he needs to find someone who might still have some old trucks around with tires that contain air from 1969. The air could be from late 1968, but no later than April, 1969 (the build date of the truck).

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
