Does anyone know if 1968 SS Chevelles were available with the space saver tire? If so, do you know what size they were? Thanks Steve

Chevelles had a full size spare. I do remember '69 Camaros being available with a space saver, but I don't think that it was available any earlier than that. Those were collapsible and used a can of co2 to inflate them, not like the "donut" kind we have now. Several of the guys in my car club are using the donut to same space, use a cover and no one notices.
