I have been away for close to two weeks and just found this out. What a loss to our community.Talked with Dave many times over the years, hard to believe he is gone. RIP and condolences to Nancy and his family.

The only way I will accept a painted bolt head in this area is if it is brush painted after assembly.

They would have to be exceptional tires: tread depth and wear; sidewall/letter condition.
Tim has a point--is mine the last '68 Div I??
