Now, back to SS with skirts................................ sorry
is there a reason that skirts weren't available?
the wheels/E70x15 tires fit - this i know for sure, as evidenced by my car. - - not arguing - just trying to understand.

To my knowledge, redlines were not available from the factory either. Could it be that the dealer put the rallys and redlines on when new? Does it say skirts and rallys on the build sheet?
i never discovered a build sheet, i put the redlines on because i liked the way they looked.
I did speak to the original owner however - and he swears that he ordered the car new with rally wheels, and skirts.

Ok, so according to the tech info - Skirts weren't available on a SS because of the 15x 7 wheels....
BUT i just sold an original White 70 (Non-SS) that had original 15x7 Rally Wheels and Skirts.
The wheels were dated originals and everything seemed legit, (including the spare which had the original rubber on it) and the skirts were surely original to the car.
So... all this to say, I wanna put skirts on my 70 SS, but only if they "Could" have been ordered - LOL
photos are of E70x15 red lines on original 15x7 rally wheels with skirts.

i'm looking at buying a real 70 SS - i've been able to verify everything except that its missing the load leveler system.
The seller says it was removed - i've asked for photos of where the valve was mounted on the rear control arm, and of the frame brackets for the air lines -
assuming evidence that the system was removed - what (if any) parts are readily available?
and any leads on who has parts - or is it just a 'eBay search' for the rest of my life kinda thing?
Thanks
Skirts on SS???

The wheels on my car are/were 15x7s it is true that with the rally cap - if you hit a bump hard enough to collapse the spring/ or put 2000 lbs of [censored] in the trunk - the rally cap on a 15x7 might interfere with skirt... but i've never had any issue.... I guess - in the end, i just need to decide if i want them on the car or not - and screw "originality" for originalities sake.. Putting skirts on does nothing permanent as I can see so
thanks
