A little off-topic but yes, stance is important. "Nail the stance and you nail the car." I think Pat Ganahl said that.

This has been up in the air for awhile for a thorough chassis cleaning/detailing project. I mounted the TTs because I had them. Dang, I believe I nailed!!
I don't feel the need to order repro bias-plys anytime soon!

On cars with radiused wheel wells it is pretty easy; at least in my opinion. Unless the car has "big and little" tires for drag racing, you just match it to the wheel wells. This guy came very close to perfect.

Pretty cool car owned by a helicopter mechanic.

Ford Ztec motor and Subaru 6 speed trans, as well as a boat load of suspension and brake mods. Even has a/c via a mini vintage air in the dash.

Very well engineered.

Default Stance

Hi all, long time reader of this site, first post. Don't beat me up too bad! This is my high school sweetheart, had it since 1989. Still has the original coil springs. Not sure if it will post.
