Yes, those are bias ply pin stripe white tires. I showed the car years back at Englishtown but haven't been in a long time. It will be at the 2013 Co-vention this year.
My issue came yesterday and it's great to see it in print, HMM did a fine job. BTW, Winston your TA looks real nice in there too! Lastly, I know some members wanted to see the article scanned and posted, my scanner is acting up and I'm unable to do it. If someone out here has the time and a good scanner I would be much obliged if they could post it, thank you if you can!

OUTSTANDING, beautiful car, I really like the seatbelt setup. No sense in not being as safe as you can be when driving it.

I'm reading the article now, nice pics! Always liked the look of your car Marc
My GTO vert has those same rear shoulder belts. The previous (and original owner) was an Air Force general so he was a big seat belt advocate and order the car with both front and rear belts. He was disapointed though because there were no retainers for the rear belts (the clips on the rear armrests are for the front shoulder belts). If you leave them unbuckled they become deadly projectiles and if you leave them buckled they poke the occupants right in the middle of their spine. So he stuffed them under the topwell soon after buying the car. I didn't know the car had rear shoulder belts till a year after I bought it.

That 3/4 rear shot from above is really sweet. You have the exhaust hung to perfection!

Very cool Mark. I read the feature in great detail. Was cool to see this post, as I had read about your car just as a Goat lover and before I read this topic.
