I can stand a little rake in the stance of a ride. Stance really makes or breaks a ride. I think most members here agree. What I've found here is a 1973 Javelin with a Buick 455 and possibly the worst stance a TA racing homologation car has ever seen. Possibly the biggest problem here is that the owner probably thinks his car is as hot as anything out there. Any of you guys have pics of other goofy stuff, or cool rides gone bad, to use as examples of what not to do?
Nice! I think he could really improve the stance with some even smaller tires in the front and a little more lift in the rear.:rofl:

I like the stuffed animal hanging from the wall!!!:rofl: :cheers:
I missed that. Can you imagine the damage the antlers will do to that hood when it falls down? Besides, it would look much better mounted above the dining room table.:lol:
I would'nt change a thing!!!:_paranoid

I think maybe that was the dining room! The rug for under the table's still there and so is the paddle fan/light.

Sad part is, that's probably the best you can do with a '73 Javelin! We're restoring one right now & I don't honestly know if it will ever look "cool" :faint:
