Re: Visible progress!
The white stripe was the base tire, the red line was an option if I remember correctly. The red line tire was no longer available on the Novas in 1970, so the white stripe was 'it'!
We know that one '69 Yenko Nova received the mag wheels, but I don't remember if the ad referenced RWL tires or not. Kevin Suydam's red '69 Y-Nova was the only car that we know received the mags, ironically, it's the only restored '69 Y-Nova with the steelies!

Re: Visible progress!
Brian, did your car come with XTs all the way around? I know your Nova came with several more options then most of the other '69 Novas.

Re: Visible progress!
I had not seen a picture of a converted 69 with the E70 white stripes. The ad for Kevins car shows F70x14 tires with no reference either way stripe or rwl although E70 would have been factory correct.
That car sold new for 3150.00 Back on the subject of the nova, Lemans blue is my favorite. I had a 57 chevy that color in high school. With, or without white stripes its gonna be cool. Schonye [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Re: Visible progress!
Hey Schoneye; I checked that sheet with the reference to Kevin's wheels, and it indeed says F70x14 tires. So, that leads me to believe that they changed the tires also on that car - probably to RWL like the other '69 Yenko cars. Looks like Kevin can go either way with that one!
I have some very early pics of K.Hand's '69 Yenko Nova that rowdyrat obtained, looks like steelies - but maybe with trim rings installed also. The car also has the SS on the tail panel (off-center) and front grille. I can't see the front fenders in these pics to tell which marker light bezel is installed.

[/ QUOTE ] I may be wrong, (Correct me if i am!) but I think KH's nova currently has E-70 15" Wide Tread GTs.
