    C-Body Wheel and Tire Survey

    Another 1962 Chrysler, courtesy of @73 New Yorker. Those seem similar to the aftermarket wheels that were on =ayilar&o=relevance']Betsy, my 1996 RMW, when I acquired her (I immediately sold them and switched back to OEM).

    What did you name your car?

    ...Michelins are superb, for ride comfort, noise level, AND roadholding. For a car that I want to be able to use in all weather conditions, like Betsy, those considerations all get priority over looks. For a car that does not see the snow, like Lalie (the 1996 FWB that I recently sold to a...

    What did you name your car?

    I wonder if Diamondback would modify a specific tire per customer request, and vulcanize white walls onto it. They have predetermined tire models that they use for their different offerings, based on quality and availability, and other things.... whether it would be worth it, that's another...

    Show me your raised whites!....please

    I recently had a set of Defender LTX M/S 235/75R15 installed on my RMW. Here is what they look like on Betsy, my Roadmaster wagon (parked at a friend's on a hill, so the front wheels are turned for safety). The Buick OEM wheels are also new to me (scored them on eBay last year). Thanks to...

    1972 Imperial Revival Thread

    ...(which I have used for quite a few sets of tires) had one last set of four with recent production dates at his warehouse, and I bought them for Betsy, my 1996 Buick Roadmaster wagon. They will be installed next Tuesday. For interested folks, Discount Tires still has the tire in stock at some...

    CATL 2023: C-bodies At The Lake on Saturday-Sunday, Sept. 16-17, 2023 (Route 66 from Chicago to St Louis)

    ...problem finding parking at night either time — the lot is pretty full during the day, but over half of the spots were empty after COB. Here’s Betsy, my Roadie wagon, on the lot about three months ago. You can see what the lot looks like. The first photo shows the attendant’s cabin — it is...

    What is your daily driver?

    Thank you for letting us know about 1G4BR82B5TR412367 -- very cool story! Sorry to hear about the transmission. The previous owner of Betsy, my '96 RMW, had to rebuild the trans a couple of months after buying the car last summer. Luckily, the job was well done and I've just put close to 4k...

    Front End Rebuild - Firm Feel or any other options?

    ...vacation I got a call from an interested buyer. He saw the car 6 years ago when I showed it at the same show. A friend of his happened to be at the show and told him he saw a 66 TC that was for sale. Long story short, Old Betsy will have a new owner tomorrow, Saturday. Good Luck with your...

    Front End Rebuild - Firm Feel or any other options?

    Sad to learn you decided to part ways with the wagon. I thoroughly enjoyed your descriptions of the improvements you made to it. Your input on this site has been second to none. By the way, did you like the FF Stage 1 steering box? I probably need to replace mine, as it’s leaking badly. I had...

    show field passes, Carlisle.

    Just show it at the gate and explain what's going on and that you talked to Betsy. The worst that would happen is they make you stick it on.

    show field passes, Carlisle.

    I would call Betsy back first. Its very possible that they may not issue a new sticker until you turn in the incorrect one.

    Welcome DrShrinker to FCBO!

    ...ago I had a 72 with hide-a-way head lamps. It got hit by a driver that fell asleep behind the wheel. Maybe not the "Coolest" car i've ever had. I had an old Riv that was probably the "Coolest". But the Fury is the only one i really miss. It's name was Betsy. Rock on, John Location: Wisconsin
