<< Funny you should mention white walls, last month I was visiting my Mother
and I found a box of old 35mm slides of my 62 Sprite that were taken in
1963. I didn't remember that it had white walls but it did, big wide white
ones. Since it only had 1800 miles on it when I bought it I am sure that
the tires were original. >>

I just found an old pic of my first car, a '63 Sunbeam Alpine Series III. I
took the pic at a scenic overlook in Bucks County, PA, and the car clearly
has SNOW tires on it! This would have been somewhere around late 1967 -
early 1968, and we were still pretty leary about those newfangled radial
tires.
