My dew daily driver

Oh crap! I was going to say you bought a wagon to haul your stingray to the playground but thought better of it! That's funny! HA HA!

I ended up buying a MN car too, and from the look of the frame it is a true MN car! Your car looks clean on the surface, how is it underneath? The frame on mine looks like it had been coated when new, but peeled off. It isn't rotted anywhere thank God, but the front and rear control arms are going to be replaced just to ease my mind.

The frame isn't bad on this one, but my first Camino was BAAD. When we tore it all apart, I saw teh pin holes around the front mount for the lower controll arms. Good thing the 383 never had tires that'd hook... Eeek. Replaced that with...a Texas car. 🙂

Stingrays are bad *ss man!! thats too funny!!

Chevyman85, thanks. For the winter it has 15x8 rallies with BFG 275s.. Can't go to a smaller size now. :wink:

Oh man I just realized the title of this in 'My Dew Daily.." Wow I'm sorry for that.

Hows the fit? I'm running the same size on my Elco but it has a lot more of a rake to it, do they rub at all? Power rear windows? Thats awesome, I didn't know that was avaliable.

 

[383Camino]

The fit is good. I can get them to rub on the wagon, but the same thing is fine on the Camino; it is slightly higher, but the top of the tire is still tucked. I've done a little bit of wheel well surgery (hammer) and it helps a lot. The wagons have different wheel wells that then Camino. The fender lips are NOT roller in either car, if you were willing to do that, I'd say you could run 3 3/4 BS and be more than fine. I know guys with 28x12.5 M/T ET Streets with rolled lips and no tubs.

You've got eights? What is the backspacing on them? I have found 4" to be the magic number. Well, except on my Olds...

 

[Chevyman85]

I used the hammer method aswell. 275/75R15's on 15x8" rims with 4" BS. I don't rub unless I really flex the rear axle. My slicks are 275/50R15's and they have no problem clearing. Just curious, it looks good. Your wagon fills out the wheel wells very nicely. I love the look/stance of the Elco. I'm a big fan! 😀

Thank you thank you sir!!

I got my rallies on the wagon this past weekend. Its looking REAL good.

 

[383Camino]

Lovin' every minute of it.
