Bill... no, they are reproductions of the original BF Goodrich tires like it came with new. They do look right on the car.

I don't come out of the shadows much, but wow where's that little worshipping/bowing emoji when you need it?

Okay, close enough...

Respect, my friend. Love this car

Is that true in 70 also?

No, this applied to '71 only.
For '70, you could get the 455 4-speed combo in either a Model J or SJ like the one Charley & I once owned.

----Loved that GP. For a long time before I knew you guys I thought the mileage was way lower as the car really looked it. Also, the owner that had it at that time told me it was original miles,,,he lied! I tried to buy it from him, but at that point before he went broke and crazy he wouldn't sell it.....Bill S

I had to post these pictures I took yesterday. These cars were by a barn outside of Austin. The brown GP is an SJ with bucket seats. The blue one is a bench seat. Both automatics.
