Moved the front half of the quarter opening 1 1/4 inch. Looks like just a slight massage on the rear of the opening will be in order. Going to notch the rear rail and box it back in to give me another inch to the inside and the 315 will slide way up in there where it belongs!

Nice work. I will watch you built this also as I love the Demon cars. How tall are those tires ? Ron

That's the same tire/wheel size I have on my Demon. The frame rails are in the stock location, wheel well and fender opening was opened up and a new bead rolled around the fender lip.

also if you planning on making it sit low id put a standard tub in there.. and cut out the outer wheel house.. the outer curve in so soon that you can get much tire tucked up in there..

here is mine with a 325/50/15






i had to do a normal tub to get mine to sit low..

Calvert split mono leaf long front segment(24-26inch not decided yet) moved inside rails with sliders. Smith assasin bars (similar to caltrac but lots more adjustment). Anti-roll device. Virtical mount da Afco's custom valved.

I thought about that but decided to spend way to much time sectioning and moving metal around to make it look like a stock tub. Didnt want to loose the structure support that goes from top of the outer wheelhouse to package tray/quarter area as this is not going to be a full tube car. I will be doing some mod to outer in the curve as well. Tons more work but it will be slick when I get it done. Also it wont be quite as low as yours but close.

i know alot of people that dont have anything going to they're package tray support and havent had anything weird happen.. i was a little sceptical at first when i cut mine.

also digby's dart is cutting 1.12 60' with the stock 20 inch segments. on a 275. . with basically with the same stuff you have.. srd bars, arb, springs on the rails with sliders..

i would call mencer for your shocks he revalves afco DA's for leaf spring setups..

love the build man.. im in for more pictures..

Lip cut off frame rail and ground flush. Rail squeezed parallel, roughly these rails are over 3/4 inch wider at top than at the bottom, bent floor over edge of rail now they were parallel and welding it back up. Gained a little more room and will be able to set the inner tub in a bit further now. These 315's will be tucked up nicley inside what will look like a facroty tub, just wider

Calvert split mono's ordered this morning to my specs and Smith Assassin bars on the way as well. Now to finish up the tub on this side, duplicate quarter pannel and tub mods on passenger side then fab up custom cross member with adjustable front spring pocket and rear adjustable slider mounts.

Yeah I know but I just like the look of the bigger tire, and not really building for a tire size limited class.



Yes agree with you on the looks department, but my car is a lot faster on the 275 then the big tires.



Think thats due to gearing or rotating mass/weight?



The pro is just that much better of a tire, newer design and compound then the orginal tire. I switched gears between the tires 4.30 with 30" tall radials and 3.91 with 28" tall pros. It's better all over 60' and et and mph.

The 275 Pro is a bad biotch, no doubt..........but BETTER than the 315?...highly unlikely. If it was, RvW and ODR cars would be using them......they don't if given a choice.

Another sweet build.
I need to open up my front wheel wells???? because the AlterKtion moving the wheels outward put the pass. side into the front of the opening on full lock right turns.
I kept the stock rear wells , but added 3 " and moved them to the rails in my '65.
It looks pretty close to factory.
No where near as ambitious tire wise , but 295-55's fit in there with change.
