I agree....leave it alone and enjoy it. Toss the kids in the back, give them a freezy and a slushy and let them enjoy themselves, while you don't give a F#$% if they spill anything...;)

Still has a double stripe tire on it! Must be using its original spare up front. Nice car but I so like the '67 better between the two years of this body.

Double stripe tires are cool

What was the super duper premium tire back then that all the rich people insisted the dealer put on before it left the showroom?
Had a gold stripe with the white stripes I thing.
And Generals come to mind.
Don't say Vogue. They're repops.

Do you mean the Good Year American Eagle? Or the Uniroyal Royal Seal? Those come to mind...

Or the Uniroyal Royal Seal? ...

YES. It was the Uniroyal, Mr. C. THANK YOU!

Mr. C:
I'm going to put a collar on you and drag you around with me.
Every time that I'm speaking and my mind goes blank, you'll be there to fill in the blank.

 

[Mr C]

Just don't ask me what I had for breakfast! LOL.

I had a set of Royal Seals that I bought from a guy for $10 each. They came new on his Imperial and he didn't like the wide whitewall. Took them off less than a week after he got the car. I had them on my 69 300 convertible, then a 72 Caprice. They lasted for many many miles. The best set of tires I ever had.. period.

One White wall design used in the AMC/Rambler Marlin brochures always made me wonder :
Did These Versions really exist, I remember one pic in the brochure where you could see that the short black Areas were done with tape, so either they were not production ready or never even available on the market....

Discrepancies between brochure pics and actual production cars always fascinate me.
I love it when they give the studio the pre-production models for the brochure shoot..
