Congratulations on 50. Your '67 looks great, especially with the hardtop on. Dennis

Thanks Dennis:

Even with our great SoCal weather I still put the Hard Top on in the winter. It changes the look and it reminds me of my Midwestern roots.
The other look is pretty nice also.

Bill,

Does your car have bias or radial tires, the car looks very nice, I installed radial tires on my 67 but to be honest I like the look of the old bias tires and the wheels just like your car over the 205/75 radials and rally wheels. I still have the bias tires mounted to the aluminum wheels.

Thanks for the nice comment . Im still running bias ply tires . They fit the wheel wells so nicely and give a smooth ride . We also needed them for flight judging .
With that said I am planning to order a set of Diamond Back 205/75's for my rally wheels .
The bias ply's are just not very stable under any spirited driving .

That is one sharp looking C2, which I looked that good at fifty.
Keep enjoying driving your dream car, sure will turn heads.
