It's been nearly a life long dream to have a GT. I've got an absolutely great car and with the exception of a narrow body, I'd be content. So, I'll add some more content later but the basic question is how do I go wide?

You're looking at about $1500 for flare bits, plus labor, plus a full respray, plus wide wheels, and likely a month of downtime.
Or you might score a flared chassis, in which you can build it up in your free time. Add the various parts to your liking. Then when it's done sell the 74 and at least break even, or it you get it done quick enough to catch the Porsche bubble actually make some moola. |
