OK IROC history guys and gals...educate me.
The car is interesting enough, but what caught my eye were the tires. Claims to be same owner for 28 years, and original tires. They are Eagle T/R tires. Not V/R. So T speed rated 245/50s? I thought T speed rating was reserved for the whitewalls on Grandpa's Grand Marquis? I never knew Eagles came in a T/R, or that they put them on IROCs.

Just going to go out on a limb here and say those aren't the original tires. If you blow up the photo of the wheel, the lug nuts are visibly worn. That would be odd for original tires on wheels that really don't do rotating.
