B-body 83/4 into a A-body

A little bit of a hijackfor me to reminisce...I had a '73 Dart Sport when I was a kid. Replaced the exploded 8 1/4 with a 8 3/4 from "another car" (B/E body, I don't remember but the modifications were already done)
Got new wheels/tires at the same time. I was pissed cuz the wheels were wide but were not "deep dish" like I wanted. Had N50/15 tires on 'em. The thing is, the wide tires with that wheel offset and the wider axle (I think it's wider than A-body) made the wheels tuck-in real nice, almost like the car was tubbed. It was real cool. Something to think about.
