DD - Well, you've got me beat; I've only had my '67 for 32 years. The first 25 years I had it (before I restored it), I "beat on it" plenty with no problems. Now? Just can't bring myself to do it. However, the first new car I ever bought (another '67 L79 coupe) had 3.70's. The first thing I did was change the tires to 915-15's in back. With those tires, that car was perfect (probably equivalent to the 215R75-15's I have on it now with the 3.55's, now that I think of it).

But I digress; any more of this O/T banter should probably be done in PM's.
