Correct Wheels and Tires For '67

[Richstang]

Thanks for posting the photo...Wheel Covers at 9 years old...a few later made a big difference in its appearance.

It isn't anything to argue over. It's just a little confusing. My 67 is 3074. A picture of it from the late '70s shows it with Magstars.

Dave says that there is no PO for it and that it came with 10 spokes.

The Marti report indicates it was a base model with the base wheel option which would be the steel wheel/hub caps.

That right there throws inaccuracy into those stats.


So it breaks down to 3 wheel options with roughly 1/3 production of each.

Now it is worth pointing out that some dealers would have tailored the car to the new purchasers tastes in order to move it out.

Besides the "required extra dealer installed options" like under coating, floor mats and 'hot wax' (and maybe a racoon tail hanging on the rear view mirror) guys like Kolb could have altered the car from what the factory did before it was delivered to it's first owner.

Kolb also spread himself around between at least two high volume dealers, Larsen and Kolb. His high pressure antics are probably the biggest reason Chevys were big in our family.


Something for the Judges to consider.

Here's 3074 sitting in Leuchner's driveway in 1976.

No hubcaps ever offered to me.

That's black spray paint making it look like a graffiti car. No sign of GT40 seats at that point.
Obviously Leuchener saved it from an alternative fait.

Interesting no one remembers who Howard bought it from and no one knew who Clark Criswell is?

It was actually a very solid car at that point.

Clark sold the car to Howard.
