65 biscayne - Lateral-g Forums

bulldogchevy · #1 11-19-2006, 06:07 PM

hey all,
just bought a new project car--65 biscayne, two door, car currently has a 468 big block in it. looking for some suggestions on suspension, induction, wheels, tires--any input and thoughts would be greatly appreciated. of course i'm going to be doing this car in the pro-touring style--that goes without saying......

been looking for a biscayne for six months or so and after seeing troy's at sema, was convinced that it would be my next project, much to the dismay of my other projects that will have to wait. just sold my 73 camaro PT and want a driver for the spring--so six months or so is the goal.
thanks, scott

I love those '65-68 2dr sedan B-bodies!!!

Unfortunately, there's not much available to make them handle.

Bulldog - can't wait to watch the build.

the chicayne had

Front: 19” x 8” with Nitto NT555 Extreme, size 245/35ZR19
Rear: 22” x 10” with Nitto NT555 Extreme, size 285/35ZR22

Hurrican

had a 295 40 20 on the rear - nice tire

can't remember the front

ps i personally would go with Air Ride, leave the motor and drive the heck out of it.
