One of my tires let go on the sidewall, I put another old tire on for now but car is getting four new tires along with the ten hole rims I have for it.

My regular tire shop is closed for holidays. Another shop tried to sell me trailer tires lol

I really would like the 205/60/13 TA's on it but they cost 2.5 times as much as Ironman 185/70/13. Both are made in Mexico. I'd like to know if more than one production run was done on the TA's or are they all from 2018. hmmm

The only other options are all Chinese made

man do love that car !!!

you did an amazing job on the rims

I am someone who knows how rare they are

especially the center caps, I was lucky like you and found NOS too

I have 3 NOS rims

one Sid eof me car and two of the rims have black center lug nuts

the other, regular lugs....

you did a great job with the lug nuts too, amazing.

I always loved the sport front end, I found an article once on the coupe spyder,, I need to find that.

just saw this build, ( unless I did before and forgot )

just a great car, very unique,....and rare........H Body folks will appreciate,...it was prob made in Canada, right ?

take care, great job.

New rear speakers installed. When I got the car, I put in a pair that I had saved but they were old and the surround gave out.

I found a fix for the floppy OE floor mats that won't stay in place. I used contact cement to attach 3mm rubber mat to the back of them.
