New Shoes
The 71 will get its new shoes tomorrow. This time, T/A Radials. But they no longer make the rear 275/60-14's that are on there so the new ones will be 245/60R-14's (the rear rallye rims were widened many years ago - think I had about 1-1/2" put in them). Fronts will be 205/70R-14's.
These Belted T/A's coming off probably have about 800 miles total on them but they're also about 33-35 years old and I just don't want to trust them. Car was always garaged and no visible cracking but at that age, you just can't be sure. So to the scrap tub they go.
