Re: 68 pro touring, auto cross c10 (mid life crisis)
great looking wheel! bet if someone reproduced a replacement that size they would sell a ton of them. Maybe a tiny bit thicker too.

Re: 68 pro touring, auto cross c10 (mid life crisis)
Whats the raised portion on the fuel tank for? Will it fill being above the vent on the pump flange? Looks like some extra capacity if it would. Jim
