I'm looking for opinions!! Just got this really nice 1968 gt dart. This car has had all the side moldings removed and a 440 installed. It was being built to be a show car and is highly detailed. My question is do you think if it was mini tubbed would it increase or decrease the value? Figured since the moldings were removed and original engine has been changed why not do it. Only asking because I got the dyno sheet with this car and with stock size tires the horsepower is just going to waste.This is my first mopar and not really sure how sought after these cars are. Thanks.
 
I have a 68 GTS 383 Numbers car (replaced the motor with a 511), the car was mini tubbed when I got it. It could always be retuned to stock if need i guess. Im glad I have the extra tire 325/50/15 ET streets. I would do what you want to fully enjoy the car. Others may disagree. Andrew
 
Yeah that's the advice I always give,do what you will enjoy. I'll prob. leave it alone since I plan on selling it sometime in the fall.

Tubbing won't make a bit of difference, in value, on an already non-stock GT.
 
Same thing I was thinking. I've owned a few fat tire cars and don't want to go that route again. Figured put the biggest without losing the back seat.
