That would be correct. It has a few spots that definitely show it was a canadian car too! hehe. It hides it's rust very well! Someone did a very good job on the body. It's been in the family for almost 20 years now and it's just starting to show a few bad areas now.

Mine was the same it was a Canadian car with a poly in it. Caused a lot of arguments with the Americans on for b bodies only site, because the US 67 cars wasn't available with the poly. Anyway the white paint hid some questionable repairs done by the guy that my car came from, he was the original owner.

Ya I have 255 70`s on there now and can`t get my fingers between the tire and fender but do have lots of room on the back side. The 15 inch Cragars in sbp have the same offset as my 14`s so I may fit a smaller tire not sure. Looked at the BFG site and will call my tire shop for advice to make sure before i spend those oh so expensive US bucks

Got-cha
Hey seems to me there is a wheel distributor in BC but just thought he might deal only in bigger sizes and probably gets his stock in the US.
Hey what about ''American Racing Wheels'', they have a cragar look-alike, if there is only a slight diff, nobody will notice(except you)...and much cheaper too.

All is left to do on mine is change the master cylinder, new fluid and bleed everything.
Bleed the master cylinder if I can figure out how with no vice or bench.

Re: Who's got big plans for the winter?
Did fool around last night. Always wanted to play my MP3 but keep my original AM-FM Stereo radio. It came with a audio jack to connect an casette deck. So i use 2 Bosch relays, an on-off switch as a selector and bingo, i could listen to my radio or music fron my IPhone(IPod or similar) at a flick of a switch.
Use Pop rivet to tie relays to radio.

Nothing like some tunes while driving although they have to be pretty loud to hear them properly. I put a Kenwood bluetooth deck in which I mounted on top of the old non working radio. Then I had to wire up the console lighter socket so I can charge the phone.
