'66 Nova Update

[ccracin]

Sweet makes very nice stuff. I used their stuff in my Late Model. Check the 22" dimension. When I talked to them about our project they wouldn't go that wide. That was about 1 1/2 years ago. I can't remember for sure.

maybe its 21, but i did check with them as i was looking for a 22 inch pivot rack last spring and thats as wide as they liked to go

Then a sweet rack would not have worked on this car any ways.

Rodger,

We were wondering what track width you went with on the Nova? We are struggling finding a power rack with a 22.5" pivot. We're trying to run stock Camaro track width so we don't have a front wheel drive looking wheel! Any insight would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Brent

there are two track widths that are talked about, hub to hub, and wheel track, hub to hub is what most chassis builders use when talking, so even if a stock camaro is 59 inch hub to hub and you build a new chassis 6.15 or whatever, you go deeper on the bs on the wheel which maintains wheel track width, yet in most cases gives you better scrub radius, among other things

Took a couple pictures of the car on the ground but they aren't very good! I'll try and get Rodger to snap a couple off!

That thing just sits sinister!! Bad ass John! Much like everybody else, I have been watching this build for sometime - it's getting close!
