Default Going to do Winston Cup/Nascar inspired build on my Regal

I have always wanted to do my 82 Regal as a WinstonCup/NASCAR inspired flair build.

I've seen the threads posted by ZuperZport ,72torinocup,and Shorttrack on their builds using a orginal Winston Cup/Nascar Chassis, and it go me going in that realm.

Now with no Chassis to work with for my build, I will work with what I have.

I want to run those 15" NASCAR rims and those wide tires, with those cool big brakes in the back.

The suspension will not include a truck arm suspension, but all the great suspension stuff thats out there for G-bodies.

I do have a question tho, if I should do the flared out fenders and radiused wheel wells wich gets the car lower, this seems to be norm on all those 80's G-bodied Winstoncup/Nascar rides. Or just flare the fenders?

Then there are the GNX flares when done with the correct GNX mods that fit and tuck the wider wheel tire combo?

Yes the doors will open and the interior will have racing buckets surronded by a 6 point rollbar but have a removeable crossbar for back seat acess , a Cyberdyne digital dash, auto on the floor.

My son said he do a photoshop of what I want then I display it here.

Thanks all

I think its great idea. And no matter what way you go on the flares as long as you have the "feel" of it I think it will turn out great. Post up the rendering for us to see.
