Good on you. Decent looking tires. Even though I'm not a big(or even little) fan of gonzo overkill tires. Good new reliable tires always make me feel good regardless if they aren't the latest craze 'look at me, I B cool I sorta get it' tires.

meh,yokohamas. not deemed good enough for the family to roll on but plenty good enough for the '69. it really needs a set of BFG t/a radials on it.

14X are the 3rd, 4th and fifth digits of his 69 Wagoneers VIN. It denots a 4 door Wagoneer console shift Custom. Nice pakage placed between the Custom and Super Wagoneer.

WOW! I knew you'd have them polished up in no time, if they were 6 or 8 lug I would have kept them, but I didn't plan on having anything pre 74 or ford anytime soon.

If I ever get to the point of putting the slots on the Wag I'll have to bring them over for an acid bath.
