Member "pettybludart" has one done and could probably help. Might search his name here and find some threads about his car. It's real nice and runs 10's...:D.
 
Hi Bryan,

My car is not mini tubbed but I've been able to stuff a big tire in it for years. I've never posted a picture here before and so I hope this works. This is an old picture but here are Mickey Thompson N-50-14's with 12" tread. There are no wheel well mods other than a minor trimming of the outer quarter flange:

Mine.
Best advice I got on this was to not try and take one long strip to fill the gap. I used eight to ten inch strips and a butt weld where they met and this made it a whole bunch easier.
It even turned out pretty O.K.

Thanks for all the pics, that's what I was thinking needed to be done. If you look in the restoration forum under (1964 dart gt by bob) you will see more pics. Car is alot further along now, I need to update it. Car is blocked and reassembled, 1 more final blocking and paint should be on it. thanks again!!
