Have you considered radials for a softer ride?
I put Diamond Backs on my HJ before I went across Rt. 66 to CA a few years ago. Looking back, I could not conceive of doing that trip on bias plies!

NOS crack-free ones are available, BUT, if you are looking for one that is perfect, you will not find one.
there are "knit lines" in all, due to the molding process
one may think that you are looking at cracks, but they are not

The seller's explaination of 45 vs 46 in the answer to my question (scroll down in listing) is hogwash.
First 50 cars did have different seats with X-pattern and buttons.

He claims that he has done extensive research.
I had asked for docments so that I could change the judging standards----FAT CHANCE!

The seller of the Darrin referenced in an earlier entry in this Forum claims that the car for sale is one of only 50 that had emblems on the side of the fenders.
I tried to convince him otherwise, but he pulled the "do you have a P. H. D., I have a P. H. D." trick.
Looks like that "change" never made it into any KF document.

If you had a fix seat, one option was a package tray.
Fold down seats do not have one--no place to put one.
