Ordered the car in Vietnam and it was delivered to Bob White Olds in Green Bay, Wi. in January. My wife and brother had it "broke in" pretty good when I returned stateside in February 69'. Craig

Reading this thread leaves me a bit confused -- seems there are indications those tires in the photo couldn't have been original to my 442. I've slept some since the mag wheel installation but I have to ask -- why would I buy "new" Goodyear tires when they are less than year old. I still think those were the original tires. Am I off base with that assumption? Craig

You have a 1969 right?

Is it a W30?

Thanks for clearing that up Rusty. Sure wish I had held on to that one. I have been told it is still in someones back yard in Clovis, NM ... some of my kin are still on the look out for it. Craig
