I shipped one inside a 20' container once, it was a tight fit but it made it with a few inches to spare.

WOW!! I saw similar conflicting info regarding, 208/226.5 inches, that is why I asked. My garage is 23 ft deep, so it would be really tight.

A '68-'70 Charger or Road Runner is approximately ~ 208.5" or 17' 4-1/2" lg.

A '69 Daytona or '70 Superbird is approximately ~ 226.5" or 18' 10-1/2" lg.

So the 23ft garage should be plenty.

My garage is 24 ft. I can work on my 20 ft 74 club cab with no issues.

My garage is about 50' deep. If someone gives me a Daytona & a Superbird, I will measure them both & make sure they fit.

I promise.

I had a racecar Daytona (not mine or it would still be a racecar) in my 20' deep garage, you weren't getting around it without the garage door open but it fit.
