Done several mini tubs as a fabricator. The deep tub kits out now for 1st gen f-bodys seem to be on a tread . We have fat inners, narrowed frame rails and a trunk pan that matches. AMD and Dynacorn needs to fatten the asses for Challengers and Mustangs,
@@V8TV hmm didn’t think about it like that. Is there an advantage to one over the other? I can see the biggest is aesthetics on a deep dish rim but performance wise?
@@shaunsmith9184 The modification can be done without narrowing the rear end, which is a process many do not have access to. The goal is to get the largest tire as possible for best traction, and wheels can be off-the-shelf or custom made if need be. The aesthetics are really secondary in our view.

Awesome video
@@riggedandjimmiedgarage7268 Thank you!
Nicely done !
My stock 69 bucket that sometimes starts is looking for a sponsor 🏁
I think Kevin always does a terrific job explaining.
Thanks Peter! It's easy to chat about topics you know and enjoy!
The level of difficulty went up exponentially with the car already being complete. Excellent workmanship! Thank you, stay safe 👍
Thank you! 👍 We appreciate the kind words!
Nothing like great workmanship...keep it up Kevin & crew
Thank you Nigel!

I always enjoy your videos. Thanks
Glad you like them! Thanks!
I can't imagine the cost. This is top notch stuff.
Very informative video! Great clean work! What would be the new overall width of the rear end?
Thanks! You can use a stock width rear axle housing and fill the wheel wells with a wider wheel and correct backspacing.

Had no idea so much additional modifications were required when tubbing
There are lots of elements, for sure!
great video! @ the 7.25 mark in the video, what size wheel and tire is that ? i like the ratio and look. thanks !
Very interesting video! Great job.
Thank you!
What offset for larger rear wheels & tires fit a 69 Camaro do you use
I can’t imagine butchering up a completed car just for some rubber. The street racing days ended in the 70’s. I lived it and too bad others didn’t.
I rather go wide body instead theres so many things you have to modify to install minitub
There is probably more to do on a widebody, especially when considering paint work. But widebodies are sooo cool!
