In 1967 I was in Fairbanks, Alaska, when they had their big flood, we were stranded at the airport, one of the last dry spots around.
They fed us US army C-rations... now those were something else. Maybe they should hand those out for food stamps.?

Bob, if you're hungry, I know where you can get some real good camel meat, not sure if its 1 hump or 2. The butcher also sold kangaroo meat. Still hungry?:barf1:barf1

Hey Bob,all kidding aside , I would go with the wagon wheel"s or what they also call 409 wheel"s . Just make"s the dog dish in a little deeper and a wider looking stance .Always liked that look if I were going that combo.There are some pictured on this thread that way.

I am considering switching to the 14 X 6 wheels if I ever find a nice set. For now I have to live with my 14 X 5's. (or are they 5.5, it's early so can't think yet)

Odd that they don't say but I bet they are bias. If they were bias look a like radials they'd be falling over themselves mentioning it. :D (and the price would be higher too)

My slicks from them are capped Michelin Radials. Guess you would have to give them a call.

I smell new rubber! 5 new radial bias ply look a likes have arrived fresh off the Fedex truck. :deal I painted the wheel fronts yesterday in Ermine white.

If I get them mounted up later I'll snap a pic or two and post. They do look old style for sure. Will be just the look I'm going for. :bacon
