No cool back story i found it in a old timer's garage while buying something else. He said mid 70's mail order probly from Gratiot auto supply .. I almost missed it it was upside down filled with magazines and catalogs including this old Gratiot catalog ... Its most likely A&amp;A it is not as heavy(thicker glass ) as the other one (pictured below) i have so its was a racer grade version or latter .. It is very cool !!!!

Not sure if anyone has seen the latest Car Craft, but they have a really nice 68 Camaro with a near-perfect Day Two look.

The &quot;Grump's Group&quot; Camaro is a neat. Most of the old school stuff like the Cragar and such are modern wheels, but they have the old school feel. I don't want to be too down on the &quot;vintage&quot; parts but the over-all theme is good.

I can't decide if I like this look or not. Old Mickey Thompson Sportsman 29X12.5-15 on American 8.5 x 15 T-70. Both wheels and tires need a major cleanup. Any opinions?

Looks GOOD&gt; are you running the Same type of rims in Front? From what I see in OLD magazines a LOT of the FASTER cars had missmatched rims&gt;Your car with those Rims in back looks more WESTCOAST style- eastcoast cars usually ran cragars or keystones..Either way it makes you Car look COOL!I like that look-Mudflaps IF you can find them are PERIOD Perfect..
