  I'm surprised that no one has mentioned Goodyear radial wide whites!(I've run a set for 7-8 yrs and over 30K miles)(their even offering bias ply wide whitewalls now!) The tires are Union Made.(USA)(yeah the same union guys who brought US ALL paid vacations, 40 hr work week, health care, pension plans, paid holidays, and many more benefits that we all take for granted). The reality is that outsourcing is being brought to us by companies trying to maximize profits using the "global economy excuse" to find the cheapest  labor possible.(profits before people) As far as enviromental/EPA/OSHA,well,what could be more important them the air we breathe and the water we drink? I'm no tree hugger,but I am a 99%er....people before profits!

Are you sure they are still available?  I couple years ago I asked a Goodyear dealer what was available and the best they could find for me was some recently out of production Regatta2's.   
73 Eldo convert w/FiTech EFI, over 30 years of ownership and counting
Somewhat recently deceased daily drivers, 80 Eldo Diesel & 90 CDV
And other assorted stuff I keep buying for some reason
