Re: Tire Detective wanted: look at photos and tell me:
The car had the full set from day one. Per the original owner, the car was used as an early display car at all the dealerships in the Washington DC Zone. (It was delivered to Zone on 03/11/1969 per shipping docs) The orig owner commented that the letters of such bad quality that they would just peel away as he drove and by the end of the year only a portion of the bottom section was still there.
As for the actual #1 and #2 pace cars. I believe that one used Goodyears and the other used Firestone (marketing ploy).
