What did you have to do to get those tires inside the fender wells ?

Nothing, but not much clearance is leftover. The suspension is stiffened with an extra leaf in the springs to raise/level it a bit.

I see this and think of what mine could have been had they not towed off to the junk yard what was left of it after that drunk hit it. It was a 68 with #976 on the dash. Great job!!

I looked up the word LETHAL in the doctionary by darned there was the same picture of this car...now that just isn't coincidence. Beautiful car. That short wheel base (me being the Corvette lover) has always admired the AMXs. Lots and lots of goodies all through the car. My 401K would take a serious hit if I built this car. Nothing cheap here. I saw that pistol grip shifter and said that is thinking outside the box. Nice work.......and great posting and website.

Looks like some new postings .....nice work......great theme for the car. Your car looks TIGHT.........which is a compliment, like you can get in it, drive it, enjoy it, use it and have fun with it and you won't need to call triple A to get home. :-)
