Is the underside undercoated? Being from CA probably not? I have had good luck soaking the underside of none undercoated cars with Simple Green then pressure washing. Amazing the cool old stuff that comes up. I would guess your car still has a lot of original marks/stencils underneath. Very cool car. Congrats!

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: 427freak</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Looked at the spare wheel closer today. Dated 11/68 just like the car with JA disc brake 14x6 Rally II like the 68 Yenko got. Tire on it is a Mickey Thompson Indy Profile J70-14. Jack and Handle are in there too. Picked up a set of Rally II's with patina from CL for $75 yesterday. Pure luck. </div></div>

I have one maybe two of these Pontiac rims I'd be willing to give away ( don't know the dates) if a member needs them.

Undercoating, what is that? Just kidding, no undercoating on this one. Wheels are a patina match.
