109jp what are you gonna be putting under the hood?

Those are 15x7 Magnum 500's, on stock BOSS 302 springs. The front fenders have been rolled as exact copies of the BOSS, in order to assure clearance.

The orange car now has a BOSS 302 engine, like the stripe implies. Originally an F code sportsroof, it pretended to be a mach1 for a while, too. The whole car is now "correct" BOSS 302, except the VIN.

Not my car, but you can see more of it here, including how rotten it was:

The fenders, doors, and quarters on the orange car are repro.

Not my car. The wheels are 15x7 Magnum 500. The car was built by Glazier Nolan, so they should be able to tell you which springs were used.
