Re: man rule 1,000,001: white letter tires
I have to get in on this too... the bodyshop I worked at and learned all about the resto tricks n such, and all about the general (did a 68 chevelle ss396, 67 427/390 vette, 68 & 69 Z28's, 71 LT1 vette, etc.) AND learned about the way things were in the late 60's and 70's cuz theats the era all the guys that hung out there were from.. This stuff has been froever burned in my brain, and even my mom says I was born 20 years too late!!! nothin to me is cooler than a set of white block tires on an older car/truck body, along with a old sun tach (not the super tach II's please unless it has the OLD sun logo) and a three spoke stainless vette/camaro wheel on the column... my personal opinion is... soap box moment.... bf goodies still look the best, michelins would be ok (dman xpensive though), uniroyals Tigger paws arent bad (came OEM on 76-81 z28's and T/A's), coopers are cool.... well anyway, some of the generic tires letter just dont quite look right... but if you like em and they are on your runner, keep em clean and make it any way you like... ONE last thing, Ive got a set of 16.5x9.5 stellies for a 3.4 ton project of the future and I think i will go blackwall out on those... well back to preping for my class tomorrow...
