I hope to find a few generous Pre-War guys that would like to share their Pre-War knowledge and content with everyone here. Thanks, Kevin Posted on: 2006/5/23 22:25

Hi Clipper, When original owner changed tires he went to black but they were also Goodrich Silvertowns and were on the car when I bought it 40 yrs ago. I always liked them and did put on radials last year. I think they are 235r75x15 Firestones. Glad you like the car, It is NOT restored. cheers, rick Attach file:   (42.31 KB)   (43.21 KB)

my pleasure Tom. The jpr are my oldest son's initials. The P of course is for Packard. Ironically he became director of design innovation for HOT WHEELS.

He had that job about 6 years. Had some great stories. Mattell offered him a ton to stay, then said the door is open if he ever wanted to come back. Good person, you'd like him.
