Hope those rims have the right backspace or you will end up with a rub. They sure look nice though. You would probably be better off with 255-60R15 like I have. I heard of people running 275 but it all depends on the backspace of the rims.

4.5" backspace. P275 fit nice with room to spare. Some run P29560R15 on 71-74 B body but it's a tight fit.

Paint is still very nice, so will stay like that. Was repainted 18 years ago, always kept in a garage so it's like new.

Sorry, my bad, I was thinking of the Duster, never looked at the project tittle I guess. B bodies have more room than A bodies.

I think the color is very nice, just hope matching the hood to the rest of the car isn't to difficult for you.

Make sure the fan clutch is nice and tight though and doesn't spin freely.
