It would have been nice if Chevelles had come with Polyglas tires. They were considerably better than anything else at the time.

OK, seems like a good time to mention RARE tires seen in F70-14 RWL in 1970. How about General Jet 70's ? My ordered new '70 Camaro 350-4spd F-41 car had em (Couldnt get insured on a Z28 at age 16, so I built my own after the fact). Also a LS-6 car here in Erie had em too. That super low mile red LS-6 that was at the AZ auction last year has em also I think. Seldom ever seen. What would make these or the Tiger Paws cool is they scream NOT A REPO when on your car today.

*Firestone Wide Oval
*Goodyear polyglas
*Uniroyal Tiger Paw
