Wow! You sure find some neat stuff and your taste in collector cars is quite diverse! Kudos are definitely in order. Please understand that I'm not knocking you or your car, but those tires just don't (IMO) stack up to the rest of the car. Judging from the pictures, that car is way too nice for those tires. The shipper invoice lists WSW which would look good (better IMO), than those late model RWL. I can't think of a performance type tire that would be era correct, but I REALLY think a set of Gold Line tires that were used on vintage Corvettes would change the entire appearance and attitude of that car. I highly doubt if there is a set of those made in your size, but I can envision them now.........

It's not muscle car material - I can tell you that.
