metro detroit..northern suburbs. i used to live in NY a long time. most of the fleet is still there..too many things to move.

Then were basically neighbors. Did you make it to the show & swap at the Packard Proving Grounds last Sunday? CEMA show at the museum is coming up June 7th I think.

How come you sellin her anyway?....thinning out the fleet?

yep. 40 years of collecting (i seriously started grabbing things i liked ...cheap...in junior high school) and its time to let a few find new homes.

i dont get out to shows much honestly. i do the Dream Cruise event, and the thing on that Friday in Berkely, but thats about it. i just like tooling up and down the street on any nice day/evening driving something old. take care neighbor.

There are quite a few wheel & tire combinations that I like. This one has to be one of my absolute favorites though. It's more or less the look that I'm after, but in a different color scheme.

Next one up for sale. 1975 New Yorker Brougham, 70,000 miles, 440-4V, "T" Code, that starts tomorrow (5/1) on Ebay. Later on in June my 1972 Monaco Coupe, T code 440 car will be up, except for paint and redone seats, an all original sub 100K mile car. I have one more C-body left (except for cop cars) and thats a 1971 New Yorker Coupe, a real "U" Code TNT 440, Glacial Blue/Black Cloth interior and Black vinyl roof, a project we are finishing this summer and will be ready for a new home end of summer 2015 (i gotta have a litte fun in the sun with it first).

Now that I like !!!!! There was a guy near me with a 69 Fury III Vert with the same color scheme. although he had a nice set of wire wheels and white walls on it. I do like these wheels & tires.

I'm not a big mag wheel fan but overall that works for me

 

[tallhair]

Those look a lot like C body road wheel centers

Nice and mean looking, reminds me of what my parts car would look like:

nice pic..of the car . great tradition man, seriously. i have daughters in their mid 20's. they always liked my cars..especially waving at the people along Woodward Ave during the cruise a decade ago, or just hopping in something and going to get ice cream on a warm summer night a few years before that. not so much now as they are doing their own thing out of state, but maybe I'll finally talk them into driving a couple of my well-mannered sleds this year in the Cruise. i missed the deadline for the Berkely parade so i guess i will just be a spectator.

When selling any car, isn't it safer go exactly stock? Nobody ever didn't buy a car because it had a stock wheel/tire setup.

as a seller, if i have the original wheels/tire setup, and they are not on the car already, i would offer them up to the new owner. end of the day, i agree with you iit most likely doesnt hurt at all with original wheels/tires if they are in good shape. if i am the buyer, and i dont have the original stuff laying around, it could help me favorably decide depending on the overall condition of the car itself.

I like this from what I can see. The listing has ended and it tells me it has been relisted but that page does not exist. I even like the wheels.
