    I think I'd start saving for some whitewalls, skirts, and something to lower it with. The blackwalls are fine for cruising, but c'mon.... ;)

    Ooooooooo! I love it when a plan comes together. It's amazing how a couple of small changes really brings the overall design of a custom together! Nice work, Danny!

    It is pretty cool how you can change the at***ude of a car with a couple of minor changes huh?

    Im gonna keep the blackwalls on until I can afford some proper whitewalls.

    Thanks

    Looks better to me with whitewalls, hands down. Ive' also deferred to blackwalls on occasion due to the cost, or if I had some blackwalls that needed to be worn out. I never have laid aside good tires in favor of buying something merely for 'look'.

    Depends on whether you want it to be period correct or not. That car more likely than not came from the showroom with whitewalls. When somebody customized it, nosed and decked it in the sixtys, they probably opted for whitewalls. Anybody that didn't was just trying to be different. :D

    The White Walls just complete the car and the skirts in the back just really make it look clean! Goodluck on saving for them and be sure to post a pic when you finally get them!

    wide whites and lower in the back with skirts is a great look on that car.

    Diamondback makes a nice 3" wide white radial in a 215 75 15. They'll be at your doorstep in 3-4weeks. Until then, do all the moonshine runs you can with them blackwalls :)
