    For those who are truly dedicated, expanding the inner fenders on the rear inward to accomodate more width could make even more traction available. I wonder at what size one would have to go to larger diameter wheels to clear the suspension pieces as one continued to expand the wheel widths inwards.

    I despise cart axles. I would want to keep the independent suspension.

    Im no sure Ive been working.......Alot, so Im beat and even hitting the road is becoming tuff... Oh god am I getting old????
    I can and just might because its kind of kool being asked to Rep Dodge, there will be different cars inc a 70 R/T challenger so being asked to show my late model is a compliment and its a once in a life thing, the car is nice museum nice, I wouldn’t go that far...
    Dudes Im unsure about this new set up, rear wheels, they are cool but my intent was to copy an AAR car and this set up reminds me of drag racing, See below with the knock offs on.

    The 1970 AAR 'Cuda had 15X7-inch W21 Rallye wheels, but staggered size tires. It came with front E60-15 Goodyear Polyglas GT (RWL) on the front and G60-15 Goodyear Polyglas GT (RWL) on the rear. So, your current set-up is similar.

    If you really wanted to go all out, you should consider 20-inch replica Rallye Wheels.

    If you want a AAR cuda there out there for sale ,the rear spoiler looks nothing like a AAR spoiler, I have two of them....you need side pipes also.

    Well Here they are.......California Auto museum, in Sacto
    My car and I dont know if you guys recognize this challenger? One of the club members bought this from Mark Worman, of Graveyard Carz. This car was a featured on the show, and shown by him at SEMA, 70 w/a hellcat motor and a 5 speed.

    I vote for the blue cuda. I am surprised Governor Newsom allows ice cars in the tent? hopefully no one lights a match......
