Clay,

Those are the original tires that came on the 69 Torino Cobra. And I don't drive fast with them. No way am I going to chance one of them exploding when I am going down the highway at a high speed. They have been treated all these years and are still very plyable, but not trust worthy for high speeds. I keep them on for shows. Most people now never saw any like them it seems.

Mike,

You can get the REPLICAS from Coker, but they are mostly radial now and just made to look like the original Bias Plys. Also cost for one what 5 used to cost.

Also I finally saw a copy of Hot Rod Magazine with the Cobra in it and they messed up. I don't know where they got that picture from as I had to look a long time and finally figured out that it was taken in my driveway. And that would have been 5 or 6 years ago. and at no time did I ever tell anyone that it has a 427 in it. The rest of the write up was pretty accurate. Must have gotten it from whoever put the car in the Hemmings On Line car show a few years ago and I knew anothing about that either until someone told me. The only people who have ever talked to me about the car are the president of the Fairlane Club of America and a guy from some other car magazine that I can't remenber.
