new garage now with pics
Moderator: Moderators
length wise mate it is still a sqeeze i have to make sure the back end is touching the wall and that its flush to the wall to because there is litrally cms at the front of clearance [same with all the garages here]
as for length wise put it this way the old garage if i put the car in front first would have maybe 2-3 inches on the left and maybe a foot and a half on the right this new garage has about 6 ft on either side if i put it dead in the middle

I get my dimensions from here but I don't know how reliable the site is.

I had a council lockup and I'm sure last time I measured it, I thought it wasn't big enough for even an A body. How much clearance on the length do you have? Appreciate your advice as it could be a plan for me.
Yes mate the length of my Garage is 192 inches long,so you are right in that most ABodys wont fit a late 60s Dart for example is 195 inches long, i had the 71 Duster and that would just fit in at 188 inches a 71 Demon is 192 thanks to it having a different front end so that would be touching the rear wall and door,also i cant have a Challenger as thats 192 and wont fit in fact the only Mopars that will fit my Garage are Early Dusters, Barracudas and of course the Cuda which is a fair bit shorter than the Challenger
So it looks like my next Mopar Must be a Cuda
They are a lot shorter mate Mustang Length even a 72/73/74 with the overiders would fit in my Garage however them later challenger are even longer like you say,you could take the overiders of to save some length.TyreFryer wrote:Tony thanks for that feedback. My Challenger has the 73 bumper over riders so I thinks its 198". I didn't know the E body Barracudas were so much shorter!
