Thanks everyone for the compliments. I'm glad you like the car and humbled by all the praise.

What's the backspace/offset on the wheels? Those specs on the non-OEM wheels would be good to know for the guys looking for aftermarket wheels that'll fit. |
Goatless, My front suspension is a custom set up from SC&C and I have a narrow rear axle. Because of this my back space numbers won't help anyone unless they match my setup exactly. There is no room for error on the front. I was off a bit and the wheel hit the control arm at lock until I aligned it. Out back you will have to massage the back of the inner wheel well a tad bit. Make sure your body is centered on the frame. I can help with locations that need to be measured but this has very little clearance and really needs to be measured.

nasty rusty car above it... 
It has the perfect rake to it and the paint is smooth as glass..
The best looking orange 68 I have ever seen... and I've seen a ton of them.
Would love to see more pictures... |
Thanks ilo, I cut about 6 inches of rusty pipe off just leaving a little turn out under the car. Looks
much better. Replacing the pipes is on my to-do list. It is still a work in progress.
