Original engine and trans are gone already

===========================
How are you making the 245 front and 275 rear tires work inside the fenders?

I was able to get anything close to that.

Thanks,

BTW: I think the 65 Riv's are the best of all the years. They looked like a custom car when they came out of the factory. Especially the front end with the hidden lights, absolutely way ahead of its time. The cars need nothing.

Ty, Remember we have a RS front crossmember in the front and we came up with our version of the 3 link in back along with coilovers. We did keep the rear wheelwells stock though and minimal mods to the front. So the tires do fit in the wheelwells but probably not with factory suspension. IDK, never tried.

BTW,In this months HOT Rod there is a feature on it!
