This thread will follow the progress on my 1965 Acadian Beaumont Convertible. This car has been in my family since the '70s and I have plenty of great childhood memories of riding around in it (and smoky burouts) with dad when I was a kid.

It is powered by a 396 Big Block hooked to a TH400.

This picture was taken when I picked it up in 2013.



I decided on a set of 17" Vintage Wheel Works V40's with 255/45/17s and am really happy with the wheels and tires. I will admit that the tires are pretty tight in the wheel wells. Will go with 245's next time.
