Ed, no, he didn't have the tires I was looking for. He did however have a set of just plain Goodyear Eagle GT's that he was willing to sell for $2000. He was pretty surprised when I told him that they repop them and they cost less. (He was unaware of the repops.) Thanks for the lead.
The good news is that I found one. Kind of funny, I have been looking on e-bay every day for a few weeks, had wanted ads on here and the Monte Carlo SS forum, and had others give me leads with no luck. The other day on a TOTAL fluke I was browsing craigslist and decided to type the tire into the search bar. I figiued there wouldn't be a snowballs chance in hell, that I was basically looking for a needle in a hay stack. Well I found one, and not just any one, a NOS tire and the best part was the $30.00 price! A seventy something year old couple had it in their garage in Lake Forest, IL and said that it belonged to their son who moved to Iowa many years back. I picked it up Saturday and while I was there they sold me this Cities Service 5 gallon oil can for a few bucks. I was ecstatic to say the least, it was all almost to good to be true. By the way, does anybody know approximately what year the can is from?
I want to keep this ad active. I would like to have at least one more tire as a back up since these seem somewhat hard to come by.
