Took a few pics of this 70 Monaco .
( polara grille ).

Love it! What size are those rear meats?

 

[69monaco]

I think 295.......

 

[Turboomni]

The rear tires sure look huge. I wonder if they could be bigger than 295's.

 

[65sporty]

With all that tire I wonder what motor he is running.

 

[Turboomni]

I hope it's a 440 at least and not a 318.

 

[67-Fury]

Can you fit a Tire that large without Modifying? You can Practically live in Cbody wheel Tubs.

 

[Turboomni]

Well I know I could have gone to 295's in the rear without problems with the correct back spacing on my 69 Fury but I opted for 275's instead.

 

[Turboomni]

While the 295's do look cool it kinda looks like you want to race at every stop light. I went with the 275's for more of a cruiser look.

why does this car look odd, almost distorted in the body lines

looks like the pulled the quarters slightly outward to fit the tires and have enough clearance.

I think you're correct....but the nose looks funny too

I think it has some damage in the past and they put a polara grille in it.
The engine is a standard 400 , nothing special.......
He cut away some from the innerfender but can,t remember he told me about pulling the fenders outward.
He bought it and puth it together fast , just for the look/fun , not for racing.
He also owns a white 69 polara coupe .......i will look if i can find pix of that one..

Too much of the car looks funny.

Are those Blizzaks on the rear?
