Of course, Todd! Went with a much bigger tire on the back. Is that 335 or 345?

Todd's money was gobbled in labor costs! On my 67 RS Camaro, a friend's dad and I did it. The advantage is doing it yourself is that you identify the weak spots is the rear sheetmetal frame.
I had 275's on my 67 in the past, but it was drag radial's. I also had a full cage in my car, but I wanted a different car that I could drive. So out went the 383 612 hp full roller small block, and the car was restored to pro-touring. I have changed my build several times, but basically boils down on your goals for your car. Cost was never an issue with me, but everyone has a budget. So, just keep that in mind.
