2nd set of detail questions: 1963 BJ7

Jeff (Fairview), I was just looking through your photo album again and noticed you have the same Michelin X tires 175x15 that I have. Mine are now 21 years old and everyone says they should have been replaced 10 years ago. Michelin no longer makes this size (nor does anyone else). Just wanted you to be aware that tires age out after 6-10 years. I do not do any high speed or long distance driving and have not yet had a failure, but it could happen. I could not read the date code on your tire, but you should check it out.
