drool ...
Those look like the same Hankook Optima tires that I put on the Monaco. If so you will like them. BTW looking good .
I have Optima's on two vehicles, although both much newer and they work very well all year round even though I'm not thinking you'll test them too much in the winter once you finish spending all that coin....
You should leave it!!! I love that kind of sh**! It's one of the reasons I'm having a hard time committing to a full restore... then, truthfully, my 67 is a little beyond a "freshen up". But yea, it's was how you remember it. Awesome idea. My Grandfathers tractor (which I restored) still has his SS number engraved on the instrument panel... such a nice touch.I almost have half a mind to not paint the air cleaner. It reminds me of the way it looked for years. It may be the last thing I touch.
