Title: 1967 GT500 / best option mirrors and gas cap / Tires
Post by: Jakobs67gt500 on February 14, 2024, 04:56:56 AM
Good day all

Greetings from sunny Greece from #1739 GT500

The car is fully restored - BUT with sub-standard side mirrors and gas cap.
Can any of you guide me where to buy "best option replica" or NOS?

Also, the car has FALKEN tires with Goodyear stickers, I will also appreciate if you can guide me where to buy a proper set (tires was born with small letters)

Many thanks a bunch in advance

Best regards
Jakob

I assume when you say mirrors you mean you are adding RH mirror? There's NOS (just need to search and pay) and a distant second would be the drake repos. Cosmetically they look good but the adjusters and ability to hold its position lack. The same for gas cap, NOS and likely that will have different script or repop lacking all kinds of detail once you open. Tires? only one game in town Kelsey tire

Also, the Kelsey Goodyear repro tires are bias-ply, as the originals were.
