Only change I would make is to put someone in the driver's seat.

Re: 1962 Biscayne

Love it!! Love it !! Love it !! I believe the wheels are "Junkyard Dog" but what are the rest of the specs on them 18 & 20's ?? what size tires ? I have a patina 64 biscayne i'm finishing up the mechanicals on and was looking at possibly purchasing some wheels for it. Right now I'm running the stock rims and poverty caps and i LOVE how low it sits with that set up. It's been upgraded for safety and reliabilty...

Re: 1962 Biscayne

Love it. Mind sharing the backspacing and tire sizes? Did you keep it all drums? My monitor is too crappy to tell in the pic.

The way the car sits now is the way I bought, it has new rebuilt drum all the way around right now and actually drives and stops like a dream!. The front tire is a 245/40 and I believe the rear is a 275/40

Re: 1962 Biscayne

I've considered getting a 62 chevy 2 door post for quite some time now. My grandpa bought one new back in 62 right off the lot it was blue with full wheel covers though. 235 with the glide he never bought another car with a glide after that one. He thought it turned the car into a dog. need to get a 36 chevy Truck to park right next to it. Since those were probably the best looking cars he ever had and he bought them brand new.
