: First Mock up of back half job.
Natureboy71 Apr 28th, 09, 3:33 PM First mock up pic's of my 71 getting back half job. 33x22 MT radials. Once this is all done then it goes into the resto shop for body and paint. (Been 20 years since it was painted) I will try to post progress later or when it's done.

PRO 48 Fleetline Apr 28th, 09, 10:55 PM Looks Seeeeeeeeeet has me wanting more! What wheels are those?
bracketchev1221 Apr 28th, 09, 11:00 PM Make sure you have plenty of room around the tire. Because if any clearancing needs to be done, it's better to do before paint.
JWA Apr 28th, 09, 11:32 PM 33 inch tires fit the 70-72 body really well and look great :cool: Love that meaty tread pattern on yours too :thumbsup:
Side view of how 33 inch slicks look:

Natureboy71 Apr 29th, 09, 11:57 AM They are Weld Pro Star wheels. There is actually good room around the tires but I will be sure Ray, thanks for the tip. The tires are the new MT radials that came out not to long ago with the "flame" pattern. I am going to get fronts to match.
sg5492 Apr 29th, 09, 7:13 PM Looks great and I like the new tires.
animal69 Apr 29th, 09, 8:57 PM Looking good!!!!!:thumbsup:
I love the look of big meats on the rear when they are tucked under like that.
I think you'll like those tires. My buddy just switched from Sportsmans to those on his '52 Chevy Pro-Street and he loves them.
steve_sutherland Jun 19th, 09, 8:54 PM thats awesome, i LOVE that look!
PRO 48 Fleetline Jun 19th, 09, 10:16 PM Looking good more pics :thumbsup:
Natureboy71 Jun 20th, 09, 1:48 AM Here is a few more from the other day. It is almost finished. Diff is mounted. Just need the rear bars and some tin work, fuel lines, cell, pumps, ect.
I will put up more when it is completely done in a few weeks.

Still have to change the diff cover for the braced one. But did put billet caps in.
72ElCamino Jun 20th, 09, 4:30 AM looks sweet! I like the look of all that tucked tire.
Hey if you are switching the diff cover any chance of selling that one? I like the finned look.

Natureboy71 Jun 20th, 09, 11:48 PM I love that car. I thought those were 21.5's. But perhaps the ET streets are OD are as wide as the 21.5 biast street tire.
I don't think I can get my stance that low without my Flowmasters and 3 inch exhaust hitting the ground.
