    Wide tires, flares and related questions

    The guy I bought the rims from said he had 225 on the 15x8. That seemed like a little overkill with an 8 inch rim but I never saw the car. He also said he had no spacing issues but I would assume not. I know that the 235/14 steel rims I have now have no issues but that is a different ballpark. I...

    Wide tires, flares and related questions

    I got a really good deal on the rims I wanted for my 68. There 15x8 torq thrust d's with 4.5 backspace. I dont mid doing some fender flaring but I dont want to do any tubbing. It seems like its gonna be a tight squeeze with the inner fender wells on the back. I wanted to go with 275/60 but I...

    do you consider working on you classic a "break from reality or big hassle" ?

    4.6L in a 73

    Modular motors a much wider than you think. There was a thread that had a good picture of the two side by side. You have to cut out the shock towers. http://www.honda-perf.net/images/tech/5.0%20vs%204.6%20comparison.jpg

    Trans-Am Suspension

    I really like the look of the trans am mustangs in terms of ride height. I assume all trans am mustangs had the shelby drop but my question is was the rear suspension also lowered? If so where they lowered leaf springs?

    Full 64 resto

    i did the same thing to mine. It was sitting for a while so i pulled the plugs and primed the cylinders with some oil then tried to start it. It wouldnt suck gas for some reason and we ended up pulling the tank and the fuel filter was corroded and clogged so we changed that and it started right up.

    conflicted...take two...

    i believe it should fit fine. 67 and up had big blocks. 66 and down could only have small blocks cause the engine bay was not big enough. If you put a modular motor in like a 5.4 or 4.6 you will have to remove the shock towers

    dreaded door repair

    im just not sure how to get the scissor together and how that all works. I see there is a spring but i am lost as how its suppose to go together. Would it be easier to replace the skin and while the skin is out to reassemble the door?

    dreaded door repair

    Starting to rebuild doors. I think its gotta be one of the hardest things to do. I have plenty of books and manuals but none of them have decent pictures. There all to small to actually see what to do. Anyone got any good links or any advice for putting doors back together
