So did you do the DSE mini tub and notch the stock rail?

Also what is the front Backspacing?

Do i see a stock sub frame with DSE arms?


I like the stance.

Those are awesome rims. They will really make the car look awesome when you get finished. I had a 72 Nova. Didn't think that big of a tire would fit. You hit the look just right.I have the Livewires on my 75 TA.

75TA is a sweet car. Livewires look killer too.

Thanks for choosing Rushforths!
Stock clip with stock width tubular arms. I'm very happy with them. I'm surprised I have'nt seen them on more cars yet. Maybe I'll get something started! They look great.

I know exactly what you mean. That's still a big tire in the back.

Default nice

Looks sweet, nice job on the backspacing, as I have stated before, still see lots of cars with not tight enough offsets, you nailed yours!

Man, thanks. I layed under the darn thing several times. Measuring and re-measuring. Probably should have gone another 1/4 to 1/2" back on the rear. Did'nt expect the 305's to have that much section width. But it looks like it will work.
