I ran 245/45-18 in front and 295/45-18 out back on Boyd Coddington Smoothie II wheels.
Factory spring location and stock wheel wells. I clearanced the outer wheel houses inside the quarters with a bit of percussive maintenance.

Ya know I don't recall exactly. I wanna say they were 6" but don't quote me on that. Both those cars I had pictured were Dana cars the green one was a stock wheel tub car. Did it in a carport on a military base in 99-2000

My next one Id like to do a post car. As a keeper.

I had a 64 Savoy wagon as well at one point. But never got around to doing much with it. But the new owner killed it with a modern EFI Hemi and OD. Car looks great now Randy did a fantastic job with it.

That IS a cool ride!


Thanks. I'm starting to think about selling it. I've had it 40 years but it might be time to downsize a bit. I'd keep it if my kids were interested but they aren't.
