RE: IML: 1967 Lebaron convertible



Rob/John

Tires used on my '67 are 15" Diamond Back radial triple W/W's. These were custom made radials in the triple pattern used on the '67. They are mounted on the original rims fitted with early Chrysler Cordoba wire wheel covers with the '67 eagle attached to the center.
I would like to use genuine wire wheels but can't find any to fit the front brakes. Maybe I should change the Budd brakes to one that would fit.

Ed/John,



I'll be doing some "restification" to my '67 LeBaron. Maybe it's just a '67
thing? I haven't said much since it seems to be taboo. John, what size
wheel/tire combo are you planning on? Ed, what are you running on yours?
I've given up on the Budd brakes, and I will be converting it over to the
'70's pieces once I find them. I'll keep all the original stuff boxed up in
storage should I decide to go back to stock or sell the car.

Ed, Great to hear of someone doing their car their way. I have recently
acquired a 67 convertible to restify to my idea of a great cruiser. I will
be modifying the engine for more power and fitting larger wheels with low
profile radials.

Dear Bill


My '67 convertible is built to what I vision a LeBaron convertible would be like. As a teenager growing up in the 50's, the top line cars were usually built to be the fanciest and fastest. I made the changses because car owners in the 20's and 30.s had cars built to their specifications.

I have had my car for 31 years
and it is a work in progress. Some of the changes made is to replace the
jump seat with a correct '67 console. floor shift and tach; installed a
complete sequential setup from a '69 Imperial, work the steering column to
remove the shift lever bump; install a driver information center with
warning lights for such items as trunk open, driving lights, etc.,install l
& R spotlights and a rear defogger in the top storage compartmentr. Last
year the engine was rebuilt and a new 440 six pack carb setup installed
along with a trunk emblem and a change of the front fender emblems from the
crown to the LeBaron eagle usuall found on the sail panel.

Thanks for swhowing interest in
this car.Write back if you want any more details.
