Will look real good Graeme. That is the set up I ran on my 69 SS nova back in 1970. Cragar's never go out of style.

Do you know what the original Cragar SS rim and tire sizes were?

Not at the moment but they sure look like 7" wheels with those narrow slicks in a few of the early pics. When the car had the grump lump, there was a change to bigger wheels and wider slicks which might be 8's on the rear then.

And another picture that Gary shared with me this week. The Magnum wheels were on the car for a while back in the late 90's to early 2000's. I think these wheels make Nova's look like a quintessential factory muscle car. Classy yet meaningful. I'll probably mount a set of these when I'm finished playing with this car.

Graeme, I recognize that photo. That is at a local show here. I believe that is the rear parking lot of the Chevrolet Parma, Ohio plant where the employees park across the street from the actual plant. Every May a local car club here in the Cleveland area host a show there. Great picture!! I was probably at that show.
