Next generation gear head

Had my street car out yesterday on a nice autumn day. When it was time to put it away my 1 1/2 year old grand son helped me put it away. He loves being in the garage. I need to keep him interested in my old cars.

Car has a real 396, all forged rotating assembly left from my old race car engines, 4 bolt main 68 block. 5 speed transmission, 4 wheel disc brakes and front and rear sway bars. This was a southern car that started out as a 6 cylinder 3 speed stick, Lemans blue with blue interior. I added all the new white houndstooth interior. I am building for my wife. It will end up with a SS hood and whatever 69 factory color she likes. She is leaning toward Dusk blue or maroon with a white hockey stripe.

15x5 front. 15x6 will work and are cheaper. 15x8 rear. Tires are 215/70-15 front and 245/60-15 rear. The rear are wider but the same diameter, my speedometer is REALLY close.
