rear shock conversion

["Jim Woollcott" <jwgw@home.com>]

 I bought a '73 last summer which had the one piece conversion and Pirelli
4000 205/70 tires ond the standard steel wheels. There was hardly 1/8ths inch
clearance between the fat part of the tire and the upper shock mounting point
of the conversion plate. Some evidence of scuffing on the inner wall of the
tire, so I switched off to the standard lever shocks. The wide tires give
great handling and I prefer the softer ride. Jim Woollcott
