Default Re: Whitewalls

Might be wise, (just in case one may want to consider what are other family member's preferences), to ask one's wife, girl friend, children, or more mature grandchildren for an opinion on whether they prefer whitewalls & painted wheels in a color, as opposed to black-walls with black painted wheels.

Appears females & the younger group usually tend to keep up more with what the general public will think is more appropriate in any era.

In asking several younger people & females recently for comparison while looking at Model A's in Model A magazines, appears most like whitewalls with straw colored wheels.

Found it quite humorous that most thought that black walls & black wheels made the owner look like a sort of very old scrooge type of stingy, cheap Paw-Paw or Maw-Maw Model A owner -- my generation might have described such a person as a "too old to cut the mustard" old grouch type of person.

However, in my sincere opinion, have sincere respect for the wishes of other Model A owners -- whether thinking originality, numbers of points, or whatever, again, each to his own, & do what makes one content -- life is so short.
