What is the best size modern tire to use on the ol girl?

Couple more pictures after I lowered the front a couple of inches...

That is a clean one for sure!

Does anybody know if 47 DeSoto front fender trim fit my 48 Dodge front fenders?

Hopefully going to have time today to lower the front a couple of inches

Couple of pics after lowering the rear 2 inches

I am going to leave it mostly stock with the exception of seat belts and ride height..... I am also throwing around the idea of keeping the patina. I have seen some where they scuff the whole car then clear coat over it to preserve whats left and I think it looks good!!!

It has lug nuts instead of lug bolts... Is this common because all i can find for the car is new lug bolts for this car.. Unfortunately it has two stripped and need replacement ones. Oh and there on the left side with left hand threads..

I bought the car from Newfane NY... Close to Buffalo.

Well unfortunately the gentleman just passed away recently and the estate was sold...

I bought it off the guy who pulled it from the barn and towed it from Michigan to New York. He didn't have it. He only owned it for 4 months.

I dont know why someone took them off!!! the hardware is in the glove box.. If i had to guess the trim was laying by the car in the barn in Michigan when it was pulled from before I bought it. grrrrr

If anybody knows where I can get the missing fender trim please let me know... It was taken from all four corners.

Yes it does!!!

Oh and I just found out it has electric wipers instead of vacuum... Was this standard in 48?
