Camaro clip, changing the wheelbase
For those that have camaro clipped your 55-59 truck. What did you end up for a wheelbase after? Did you extend it a bit to move the wheel forward? I'm at about 115 inches which seems to be about 1 inch forward from stock.
How does this look to you guys? (I have it at approx ride height)

Re: Camaro clip, changing the wheelbase
Looks good. Centered the wheel in the round part of the hole
I added 1.25" to the front on my '59

Re: Camaro clip, changing the wheelbase
That looks great to me and I think it is what most guys do to get the wheels perfectly centered.
