Here's some more of mine: 63 Dart GT, 225 slant, manual top, and three on the tree. Pretty much all stock except for the interior (I wasn't paying $$$ when my interior guy could do nice local work), and the top (white now, used to be black). I did this one in 1998 before a lot of the stuff was being reproduced, so I scrounged a lot of junkyards. This car was ROUGH for a CA car.

Had the car since 2003, was that kinda of greenish gold with 318 when I got it. Couldn't leave it alone, now running a 400hp 360, 3:55 posi, moved shifter to floor and switched out steering column so wouldn't have the shift collar. Basically changed everything, love the car fun to drive and a head turner. Summer of 2009 my wife and I did the Great Lakes Circle Tour, started in Minneapolis, Mn went up and around Lake Superior into Canada and around then home. About 1700 miles and 7 days, car ran great at about 12 mpg (did not pass up any gas stations up there!)

I'm diggin' the Cragars and redlines! What's the specs on the rims and tires?

Cragers are 14x6 red lines are from Diamond back classic, they are 225/70/14 Firestone Indy 500 tires

If I were buying new tires now, would go with 215/70/14 for a little more clearance up front
