This street racer has a big engine (over 500") but tires that are too small - so we are going to fix that! This ride is getting a full "back-half" job - which means gutting everything behind the seats and starting from scratch in order to fit huge 32x18.5 tires!!! We are narrowing the Dana60 rearend, swapping the leaf springs for a triangulated four-link with coil-overs, installing a 6-point roll bar, and all custom sheet metal work. Then it's getting a wiring update to make everything work perfectly.
