Cragar SS and dip stick tube

[mockingbird812]

Hi all,

Enjoying a wet dreary 40 deg day in Dayton. Hope to see you in Chicago soon!

Looking for:

1. 2 vtg Cragar SS 15x7 direct bolt for Camaro 4.75” pattern and a back spacing of 4 or 4.25”. Prefer pristine but, good restorable condition works.
(Photo for attention)

2. Original Dip stick TUBE for ‘68 BBC.

Thanks!

A buddy of mine gave me some BB tubes and dipsticks (yellow tip?), but I have no idea what I am looking at (I am a small block guy). He had a variety of cars, so if you have a pic of what you are looking for, I could see if I have a match. Sorry to say, I won't be at MACN

OK, I sorted them. The only BB dipstick & tube that looked original is this one. Tube is 18 3/4" long, rough shape. Dipstick is a round yellow tip, no dimple. Thoughts?

Hey Kevin. Thanks for digging that up. I will confirm dimensions required.

Talk soon.

Hey Kevin. Sorry for slow to get back to you. This season is swallowing me! I need nicer condition upon slower inspection. Thanks for your effort!

Will also consider 15x8s (neutral or approx 4” back space) for rear after seeing some choice set ups at MCACN!

Here are 15x8s on SCW’s ‘67 “Schmidts” car. Car is a real beauty by the crew from Latrobe. Thanks for the inspiration!


Also, would like to get a pair of nice vintage, 28/28.5” tall, M&H/Goodyear slicks or other slicks of the late 60’s. Let me know if you have any leads!!

Eddie, it’s just a matter of time for the right set of eyes on this ad or someone tells their buddy with a stash of Cragar SSs!
