    Correct wheels for a 69S

    I'm restoring my 69S and want to make it as original as possible. I am unable to determine if this car would have been delivered with flat or deep 6's. Could someone please educate me on which wheels I should put on the car?

    Thanks.

    Tim

    Thank you, but it's a runner. Paint scuffs, rock chips, cracked dash. It's like a 43 year old moccasin - it's wonderful.

    I have a follow up question. What about the spare? Space saver or a fifth deep six with heart?

    Mine came with a fifth hearted deep six. Guess he could have bought a full size spare in 1969. Don't know.
