Any advise.....

I'm going to look at a set of orig 69Z goodyear tires - are to be new takeoffs from 1969.  To be certain - can anyone pls advise what to look for.  I can also use help on the production information that is also molded into the tires.  I believe they were all Nylon?

Looking for advise to be sure......

I think, if your going to redo the car - then you should do the trunk - people will say, u spent all the money to redo the car but did not finish the trunk???  I would take a lot of pics of the original looks, and with little effort, reshoot the inside...JMO

Yes, exactly - thats why was asking on the 480, what is the latest date stamp anyone has heard of....as many as i have seen, none seem to be stamped much later than august i believe. 

What does the data base say - any dated in sept, oct of 69??

Correction on the distributor - is a 1112003 distributor.....i don't have the date code for it right now as im not with the car. 

Sorry for the confusion - any thoughts?
