Ross your car is stunning and I watched your build on fabo. Alot of guys would be in awe here if they saw all the fab work you did on it. Everything serves a well thought out purpose.


Mopar to the bone!!!

I also watched it on FABO (813Demon340), the build is incredible. I'm glad to see you finished it and didn't sell it.

Heres my Valiant with 17x8 Mustang wheels on it, once the weather gets better I'll throw the Konig's back on with the 275's on it

I measured about 62.5"-63" outside tire to outside tire. Tolerance is trying to guesstimate tire buldge. It's tight underneath my car and we did some minor fender rolling, but we couldn't do too much due to the trim.

Is that Tim's Valiant? Must have changed hands again. Last guy who had it lived in northern CA.

That car has been passed around like the town pump. Three Moparts members alone, plus Andy F as an associate as well.
I wonder why? It seems like a bad ass ride.

Sublimehemi -- Having recently seen your car in person, its one of the most awesome and beautiful Mopars out there!!! It deserves to be featured in the magazines, etc! I hope to see it perform on a road race course (HSAX/HPDE)!
