Title: 1965 GT 350 TIRE COVERS TOP QUALITY REPRO
Post by: chris NOS on July 26, 2020, 05:57:28 PM
I would like to let you guys know that Charles took time and energy to make some really top quality tire covers for the 65 GT350 (thank you  ;) ), i bought one years ago to put in 5S241 to keep my original from  further sun-deteriorations, i guarantee you won't be disappointed in spending money on those .
I m not getting anything for doing this advertising , i just want to let know other owners who are looking for the best parts available to replace some "impossible original-parts to find" you can go for those  !
Chris.

Thanks, much appreciated!

There was an attempt to post this in my for sale ad, but it was deleted by the moderator, with the suggestion of putting it in a discussion group... just FYI...

Have seen them from the last batch and I would suggest that if your even slightly considering getting one you should jump at the chance. One of the issues with projects like this is sources for the products dry up, get replaced by something less like original or it becomes more expensive. Kind of surprised that shipping is included to the 48 states. Shipping isn't getting any cheaper if you've noticed.

Just my experience

Is there any way to verify that a spare tire cover is the original? I have one that I assume is original as it came with the car and I have never given it a second thought (until now).

Attached are a couple pics of an original next to the ones I have.  This is from the previous batch done a few years back.
