Your tire height/combo makes the car. So many guys want to know how to give their Charger that "bad ass" stance, when all they need is taller tire to fill up the huge wheelwells. Your '68 looks great!

Gordo, i consider myself a semi educated hack with a keen interest in BB wedge engines. I've broken/rebuilt my share and learned what to do and what not to do over the years. A lot of the learning curve has been trial and error but i've also had some great Mentors along the way.  :2thumbs:

There's allways something to learn...and just when you think that you've seen it all....something new pops up. It's a constant learning cycle, at least for me.  :yesnod:

That's exactly what it is...At least from what I remember from being a volunteer fireman back in the 70's.   :D  I wish I were still in good enough physical condition to do that again. It's very rewarding.   :2thumbs:
