Looks like a custom paint shop prepping the bodies for the new season for sure

The stance on Dick Landy's challenger on page 1 is perfection. Are there any details online as to what size rear tire he was running and how he got that stance?

Landy's car changed about every month back then. It's pretty low there. I would guess he went from SS Springs to leaf link and then probably 4 link. I have original articles back when it was new. I'll have to dig them up but that car was constantly evolving.

What do you guys think mis-matched wheel look? Torque thrusts front and steelies on the back?

It was very popular back in the 60s bu the reduced wheel weight / less rotating mass rules launching these cars

I don't care for it myself, but it was a necessity in the early years of the era. If your building a period correct '60s drag car, it was common back in the day.
