    Those are the old style one-piece flotation tires, and they don't look real good. You'll need three-to-five lug adapters, eight inch bead-lock rims, and 21 or 22 inch tires. What kind of tire really depends on what you want to do with it.

    Good luck!

    Time to dredge up an old post. Hopefully I still have the six wheeler, if I do it'll be here tomorrow. If it comes... what kind of tires are those? I'm trying to figure out how much a set of tires will cost.

    Well that was fast! The body is in poor condition, so I'm going to re-fiberglass the outside and inside, I'll do some extra reinforcement on the lower half.

    It's a Chaparral, made in the late sixties/early seventies. I think the engine is a transplant. They're not a very common machine, and well worth the effort of a restoration, but the weak point of the beast is the thin lower body that was prone to cracking up.

    Good luck with it!

    Help identifying my new 6x6

    Just got this from my great-grandfathers estate, but I have no idea what it is!




    Definitely not in good shape though.
Working...
