Re: Which side looks the best on my 67?

I like the letters out it has too soft of a look with them inside it gives it better lines when you can see the letters. If that makes any sense.

Letters out with rallies. If you ever decide to run some aftermarket aluminum wheels, though, keep the letters in.
