The tire had less than 5k miles on it and found a rivet in the sidewall.. The spare is just dirty but old.. 2001 anyone?

They can be cheap, but only when they are in stock..

One is coming up from Houston.. and hopefully tomorrow.


His stang is getting a complete overhaul, new suspension, new brakes, some body work, fresh paint, new radio, new tires; and it will stay stock looking. I think the shop is charging him $14k for the work; so he can take it on trips and enjoy it, it has been in his garage for about 20 years. Not sure when it will be done, but I will get more pics then. I am in line for it, I have an older sister, my mom, my mom's brother, and about 3 older cousins ahead of me age wise.
