+1 on the bad offset.Originally posted by Bob Parmenter
Front track on the Volare is 61".
Your truck original is near 57".
MII is 56".
Lots of people have put front clips on these older Fords that were too wide. They end up with wheels with lots of negative offset to still have the wheels look goofy in the wheel opening.
I used a Volare subframe for a '48 F1 project and had to run 15 x 8's with +2 offset... only 1" of rim showing at the outboard edge. It looked like I had 3" drag skinnies up front... coincidentally, it looked good with the 15 x 12's in the rear and HUUUUUGE wheel tubs
Ensure that the path of least resistance is not you...

Thanks guys! It's been a long road. Fun doing finishing work for sure. Getting the dash ready for paint and some interior trim. Have to do some finish work on the aluminum headliner before...
