Last point on '67 disc vs. drums:



The car in the foreground has drums, thus the FC wheels and, in this case, P01 wheel covers. The second car has discs and thus the Disc Brake wheels. The SS427 Impala also has discs, as can be clearly seen. Dana Chevrolet, 1967.

The first 67 in the picture above has Firestone D-70 14 Wide Oval Redlines....
The second 67 has Goodyear Speedway Widetreads in D-70 14! Not because of the rally wheel option just because Goodyear was the little known second vendor in both plants ( see how close the redline is to the rim bead comparatively)...FYI

50k is what you will sell it for or $50k is what you paid for it?
