IRON MAN

1970 AMX before and after pictures: Swollen fenders, headlight removal, more pronounced spoiler, missing wipers, more tire...all for the need for speed.

The first pic is a lot different from the second one , the fenders were nto swollen & the scoop was blocked off .
I like the 70 best  :alan2cents:

Wow: Great shot. That front sheetmetal is really sloped.

On the Javelin /Donohue picture I don't think they are the same car, roll cage is different, exhaust pipe exits at a different spot.Quarter panels have been reworked, fenders too. I wonder if the first one was a "show" car and not a real race car. Cool to see the subtle differences that add up to big results though. Common trick back in the day for superspeedways was when the car came into pit they would yank on the fender opening in front of the front wheel to make the fender wider. The fender brace behind the fender was made pre bowed so when they pulled on it it ( tire changer) would go straight holding out the fender. ;) I'm told doing that could gain 1-2 mph at speed. During/after the race it doesn't need to pass any template rules!  8)
