I didn`t know what topic this would go under so here it is. Is it possible to mini-tub a 65 chevelle with out cutting the frame? Has anyone does this? if so how much more room does it give you?

your in the right topic. its easy to figure. just measure the distance from your inner wheel well to your frame. thats all your going to gain. it aint much on a chevelle. i would not do it unless yours is rusted and needs patching anyway. i stuffed 325-50-15's under my 70 with the right offset rims, by taking a 2.5 pound hammer and beating the inner wheel well into the frame. it only had to move about a half inch or so. yu cant tell but it gave me all the room available up to the frame. 325-50's are pretty wide. http://www.chevelles.com/forum/smile.gif
