Hey Dennis, do you think you could have gotten away with 4" backspacing?
 
Do you think you can fit 245's in the front?
 
I think the 4" back space would alright, but I think the 245's with 4" back space would be a problem.

Hehehe, I know that one is yours. I'm looking for a better look at the rear. A profile shot if you will of just the side of the car.
 
 I hope these will help!
 
 
Not sure if you need this, but here is the front

I've just replaced the 235/65R15s on the 15x8s on the rear of my '69 and unfortunately "something" rubs .. The old tyres were the same size, but there you go. I suspect from looking at these photos my car is too low in the rear .. :(

Yes it does, thanks Dennis.

 
Oz, I'd raise it and next time go w/ a 60 series.
