" I got to talk to Douglas Glad today.  He's the Car Craft editor who is 
" building the 67 Rambler that you may have seen recently in the magazine.  He 
" talked about the difficulty of doing a Rambler.  Because of the smaller 
" following, he can't put it on the cover, and after all the work that goes in 
" he only gets a few articles out of it.

" Inside scoop?  Well, I guess I can say he is planning to see once and for 
" all how big a tire and wheel combination you can fit in the American, while 
" showing for the benefit of all how to measure for this on any car.  I think 
" 215/75-14 on the back and 185/75-14 on the front.  We'll see what the 
" magazine comes up with.

he ought to be able to do better than that.  i run 205/70 on 14x6" all
around on my '68 without rubbing, and if i was more particular about
spacing i think i could do 215/70 on 6.5".  and the front is trickier
than the rear.
