Default Re: Motion Tires

Slight type-o previously. Here is what I was trying to get at...

I would expect a Motion prepped car to have the ol' bat roll done on the lip to fit the largest tire possible. If COPO's car had it's original 1/4 lips and is a Motion car (no disputing that) it would be a little surprizing. If the lips are there due to 1/4 replacement, it would seem more reasonable.

I've found from experience that most of cars around this part of the country need the 1/4 replaced/reworked as part of any type of restoration. The recently uncovered Orange Deuce is a perfect example. Joe, I'm sure you can relate too.

Anyways, I understand the majority of the cars discussed here are worthy of the higher quality restorations and am not looking to take anything away from that side of things. I look forward to seeing everyone and the cars they bring to the SCR6!
