My Whitewalls are Goodyear Arriva's from 1989! They still have some tread and haven't rotted out! Good Year stopped making these wide whites a long time ago. I have no idea what I will replace them with but I love the wide whitewalls.

There's two companies that still make the 1.3" whitewall. Broadway classics and Dimension IV which you can get through coker tires.
Guess I could add dad's too, even though I haven't gotten any good new pics in a while.
Hasn't been looking so great lately, with the top mildewed and grayed once again, it sitting around without much use, and having toasted shocks and such, but my brother tries to keep it detailed when he can.

No offence Derek, but that red leather is odd on that car.
Well, again, it's deeper than that and not fire engine red like the old digicam made it look when I took those pics years ago. It's not purple like the burgundy you see sometimes, but not bright red either--very, very luxurious and I actually like it more than my neutral to some extent. My dad doesn't--he'd prefer the neutral I have in every vehicle--but it's one thing I really like about the '93, and was shocked we found one, especially since it matched the Roadmaster.
This is more accurate:
Overall, I think the Neutral is probably the best shade for most colors, but the rarer '93 Garnet red is quite nice if you like some color, and not drab like gray or yuck (IMHO) like blue. Not for everyone, but you have to see it in person to get the effect, especially when it's as immaculate as our '93 inside.

Oh yeah, that's much better looking in that pic. I wish I had some digital pics of the red leather I had in the Roadmaster. I think it was a slightly different shade than the stuff in your '93. In '95, Buick's red leather used in the Roadmaster was called "Dark Ruby Red", Cadillac's red leather used in the Fleetwoods was called "Dark Cherry" , probably not the exact same color.
