Lemko, you'd be proud of me. Tonight I started replacing those aging Firestone Firehawk raised white letter tires that are on my 5th Ave. For anybody who hasn't yet seen pics of that unholy matrimony of police cruiser and luxo-barge, here ya go.
 
Now, I refuse to put its OEM wire hubcaps back on, but I still have the old deep-dish turbine style hubcaps that my '79 Newport had. And I'm going back to whitewalls. Just put a pair of tires on the front that I had sitting around the house. They're about 6 years old, with barely any wear on them, and my mechanic deemed them safe. Eventually I'll have new whitewalls mounted on the back, to complete the look. In the end, it'll look sorta like the cars in this St. Regis brochure.
 
Just out of curiosity, is the plural of "St. Regis" "St. Regises" or "St. Regi?"

I used to live near a German guy that had a pristine, red GT parked in his garage. He would bring it out on sunny days.

Obviously a labor of love. I would prefer it without the yellow accents in the interior.
 
A nice piece of work, but all things considered, I would rather have a Miata.

Yes he did a good job, but I doubt he could get more than $20,000 for it.

The 1958 Pontiac high desert survivor is great!
