Default Re: Rarest Olds 442

To each his own. I like 7 inch wide SSII's, but hate early skinny SSI's and SSII's and really hate steel wheels and dog dishes.

Nobody would be seen dead driving on the streets with dog dishes back when these cars were new. Most of the ones that had them went straight to the wheel shop and bought Cragar SS, chrome reverse, or others. Even the race cars used fancy wheels (case in point, the real Smothers Brothers cars that Dick Smothers drove.

So There.
