    It was the 70s man :D I agree the suspension looks scarry. :eek:
    I was probably a junior or senior in high school when this picture was taken, we had a snotty sounding similarly tall black Mercury Comet with a 8 qt pan hanging under it that cruised around high school.
    Cars like that still give me a woody. :cool:

    Flat towed cars may have been required to the "Car in Tow" in some states, a lot of guys flat towing in my area had it on.:rolleyes:

    I want to run a 26 or 27 inch tall tire, with a width of 6 inches. Its hard to find. I have a pair of 5.50-6.0 by 15s that are 26 x5.5. These should work.

    I don't know if this raced in the '60s, but it sure is weird.
