Hey Dennis,

That is one nice Cameo you have there. After seeing the tires I decided to
go with the Coker Classics. Thanks.

Rich, you can see how Coker 235-75-15 whites look at www.chevytrucks.org/
Click on Photos, select 1955 and scroll down to the two Cameo pictures.
The
pictures are with stock wheels, I just replaced them with new steel 7" wide
US Wheels, $42 at Performance Tire in Long Beach, CA
