    But of course!!!:grin:

    I figured if I cut the GS hood scoops into it and done the suspension mods along with the 400HP engine I could call it GSX if I wanted to. Id never try to pass it off as a factory option but I still have to argue with some folks about it being origional. Had one dufus yesterday that swore up in down the 68 Riv was Ft. wheel drive. Geesh:Dou: Even after I showd him pics of my car.

    Haha, He must have confussed it with a toronado. Duurp. Those scoops do give it a bit more attitude, as if Rivieras needed any more attitude. :beer

    Ft's are 235/60 and rears are 275/60 with some room to spare. I put a 1" Alumn. spacer on top of the GS springs. The only rub I get is with a full tank of fuel and the kids in the back when I go over a big dip or hump in the road that makes thecar "float".Then its just slight. heres a pic of it up on the trailer at the track with 26x11.5 drag radials in ot. The wheels 3.5" BS

    She looks good Yards. Theres always at leat 1 person at every show I go to that says they have never seen a Riv before. They probably have, just not as dressed out as ours.
