Diamondback wide whitewall which are modern radial tires sounds great. Anyone bought the Coker Tire ?
I guess if you are driving your Packard each day on the road, you need modern tires.

Could you get way with painting engine silver ? I have noticed many engines if not painted black, paint, green, blue. I am guessing would look really good. What paint gives the best finish?

Some advise from experienced members. 1948 cars with origional White wall tyres on. I guess are too old to keep. Are new White wall tyres easy to come by? And they expensive? And what size do they tend to be?
