Nice job. If I don't sell or trade my '65 I'm sitting on a set of old school 15" / "165" bias ply tires that will be on it or some other vehicle at some point. Also, I love the old Sapphire I's. On occasion, between the 6V fade outs, I even get CKLW or whatever 800 is now!

I took off a set of 165/85/15's to mount up some 145/65/15's to make some room for the addition from Widefive

nice you're gonna drop it.
Our 66 never had a radio..must have been a bare bones car. Black interior etc.
My bus has a radio..it did work but I think i unhooked the speakers or something when I was undoing all the hacked wiring under the dash..it still turns on but no sound...I need to fix it
