A kid who used to pick me up at the buss stop and bring me to school w a black big block yenko nova had those on his car. I bought his old rupp mini bike and after that he’d always stop and give me a ride to school he was always late going to high school. He was a “ trouble kid “ he then. Graduated to pro tracks like the rest of us.

Super gloss Black Nova , Big ass cragars jacked up to the sky, skinny’s up front , chrome side pipes , garter belt on the steering column tach. Car was so bad ass. Lots of chrome under the hood and a tunnel ram.

The Firestone 500 really started that white letter craze.

I wanna see more pictures of that vette and that firebird w the bad azz paint Now
Woody of woodys auto body in newbritain CT painted a lot of those cars he did a lot of the funny cars of the 60s one of his cars was even in a photo shoot w Stevie nicks in CT . And he painted one of Paul Newman’s cars.
I did some re work on one of his cars Newman’s also. Woody also painted my RAIV firebird.but that sank the thread this is tires.
Raised white letters are making a bit of a comeback right now oddly enough
