They were 15x7 wheels with 215/65/15 on the front and 255/60/15 on the rear.

MonteMike: I have a '71 Nova in Black also with custom black bench seat interior and 4 speed. What size and backspace on the chrome reverse wheels, and where did you purchase them? New or rechromed used? Thanks, Don.

The rear wheels are wheel vintiques chrome 64 series steel wheel 15x7 with 4.25" back space. They aren't a true reverse. I ordered them from summit.

I had a set of those (14") on my Chevy II for a while. They are nice wheels for the money.

Just put in a Richmond 5 spd. The car is fun to drive, and cruises nice with overdrive. Had to cut a hole farther back and a little bigger, for the shifter to come through, but worth it. Other than that, was mostly a simple swap for the muncie. Shift linkage is tight in the tunnel, but fits. Don't know if the big block mounts help with that or not, but I think so. If everything was any farther left, I would have had to bash the tunnel some I think.
