Default Day 2 - mid-60s style

I see a lot of day 2 builds focused on late-60s / early-70s themes (which is very cool, btw)!

I decided to "day 2" my Chevy II. Cragar S/S, Keystone, Torq thrusts, etc were just coming on the scene in '65-66 time period, and they were very expensive. Many went for Chrome reverse, or stock type wheels, as they were the cheapest option to dress up a stocker. You don't see that look on '60s cars these days (except for customs), even though they were a popular muscle car wheel in the '64-'68 time period (and even before that).

These are Wheel Vintiques series 64 - 14x5 front, 14x6 rear. Tires are modern radials with a white stripe close to the width popular in the mid-60s - 185/70 front - 215/70 rear.








Car is a 327, M20, 3.36 posi.
