Repo Marti Auto Works window sticker question
« on: January 26, 2013, 03:24:11 PM »
So, I'm filling out the info form to order a Marti window sticker for this car: 5F07C7660**  , 65A Y 22 21T 36 6 6, and it's asking about tires for my V8, nylon, white wall, etc.  My question is: how do I know what the car came with from the factory?  How can I tell?  Thanks.

The only way you would know that is from a build sheet/order form or original window sticker.

The standard tire for a V8 was a 6.95 x 14 black sidewall. Extra charge were applied to nylon, white sidewalls and dual redlines. Depending on what your goal is for your car, you might check out what Coker Tire http://cokertire.com/ is currently selling, order a set, fill in the blanks on Marti's form and be happy. Get creative.

That's what I was afraid of....  I appreciate the info.

Thank you Jim, you have confirmed what I was thinking.  I currently have bias ply whitewalls on the car so I think I'll take your advice and fill in the form that way.

I don't think anybody will fault you for guessing on such an item.  The most common tire would have been a std. whitewall.

I think that would be an "optional" vs "std." whitewall.
My original 65 window sticker is attached.

When I got the car in 1993, the seller handed me the window sticker, the original owners manual and the original dealer installed floor mats. A couple of months later a friend handed me the invoice.
