[RALLY]

The car currently has 15x7 steel wheels on the rear and 15x6 on the front...tires are 235/70 and 225/70.

So, should I keep these tires [they are like new] Firestone Indy 500's...or swap them out...?? Will need to source the Cragar mags as well.

Car has headers, original Lakewood bars, 4.10 gear, small converter, 163 intake with 850VS Holley, 4 core radiator, flex fan, taller front springs, etc.

Any thoughts are appreciated. Also interested in any Laks Chevrolet items like plate frames, emblems, etc.

Just took it for ride...it runs strong.

Thanks, wilma

Nova looks great and with Cragars even better. I have 15x7 Cragars on my 72 Nova SS and 14x6 on the fronts. Personally i like a little slope downward in the front which i did by cutting a coil off the front coil springs. Good luck with your project. Your Nova looks sweet. Loved Grumps 68 Nova look.
