wow!! un freaking believable! what an awesome car! maybe i missed it, but i just cant get my head around on how you got such large tires to fit up front? what did u do exactly? i want to do that to my 68 cuda!!




About 2/3 the way down page 1... he talks about stretching out the front fender lip. Some do this with a porta power or bumper jack.

Here is what I did to get the extra clearance needed at the front edge on a '68 Barracuda: https://board.moparts.org/ubbthreads/show...rue#Post8094659

Some folks just push out the fender, which is what he did. The valiant and Dart have different shaped wheel openings than the Barracuda. I have also heard of people using a spacer for the fender support.

Here is a picture of how we rolled the lip on my '68, I have 18x9 with 255/40-18, but a 275/35-18 would fit easily:




Yep just pushed out front fender, cut a bit out of lower fender lips where they go into rockers. Also running 18 x10 +42 offset wheels right now with 3/4 inch of spacers. Fits great!
