On original cars, there were basically three rear flare configurations, wide hip, narrow hip, and comp. Early wide hip cars had no lip and also had Sunburst wheels (8.5) which made the wheels and tires of early street cars look "lost" in all that rear fender. (The best look in my opinion and no one makes it other than Kirkham) Peter's BRG street car at ERA has been modified to get that "look". The lost in the fender look was modified with narrow hip versions where the rear flare was less round. What almost all replica manufacturers miss is the "squat" of the 427 where the yop of the rear tire cannot be seen in the fender well. ERA's adjustable suspension allows you to adjust the cars ride height to get this effect and make the car look right. Most manufacturers have a narrow hip version with a lip. Makes it more difficult to tuck large tires up under the fender where they belong without contacted the fender.
