I might have pics of the '73 ventura with the rally II's and blackwalls...
If you run 'em that way,I highly recommend running them without the trim rings,they just look meaner that way,kinda like the way the judge looked with no trim rings. Of course that's assuming they have'nt had rings put on them yet,otherwise you'll need the rings to hide the scratched paint on the rims. Personally I feel that "look" is badass. Also prefer the red center caps and lugs too. I'll see if I can dig up any pics and scan them to post here. HTH. BP. |

Thanks Brett. That would be great!
I just picked up a set of 15" R II's that were just painted not too long ago,so no trim ring scratches on them yet (I don't have any 15" rings anyway),and I have a brand new set of the red center caps on the shelf that I was going to put on them too. Problem is I have a used set of 255/60/15's for the back,but don't know if I'll find a matching set for the front,and I hate mis-matched white letter tires.I figure the blackwall look might work,but hard to picture laying the tire up to the car.

Now remember it's not the best picture quality,all my photos were smoke damaged from a house fire not too long ago.
And the pic was just a quick shot of the car with a cheapo camera (no digitals back then yet),so dont expect anything super detailed. But here is the '73 shortly after I got it and cleaned it up and got rid of the full wheel covers and thin whitewalls. BTW,this pic has the late model brushed aluminum caps on it,later on they were replaced by repro red centers,these were borrowed from a friend just for the time being. HTH. BP. |

Thanks Brett. Yeah,looks good to me. I'll probably run them blackwall out then.
