Here is my 62 Ragtop Looker. Some of you will know the car, because I bought it from another Lounge member. (Thanks again Rasmus!!). Today I changed the wheels and mounted bumpers to get the car streetlegal in Austria.

I have been using the M&H 215/65's for several years with '66 short axles and stock ride height. There's 2-3 cm clearance to the fender lip and when I launch at the track, the gap closes right up without excessive tire rubbing on the fender...

It is a hair too low in the back for traditional cal look, but it still looks great.

Congrats on the new car, Charlie. I'll have to come by and see it. Too low in the rear for my taste... but it's your car, so long as you're happy; enjoy! '65 or '66?
