I have a question or comment for all. When and where was the phrase ‘slabside’ adopted to describe the stock fender flares on a 260 or 289 street car?
The leaf spring cars had either 'street' flares or modified (enlarged) flares. The enlarged flares were added either by AC or Shelby or an individual that either wanted to go racing or wanted a 'racey' look. They took on several different profiles. The cutback door cars received what AC referred to as "wide rear wings". No where do I find the term 'slabside' used to describe the stock street car.

For what it’s worth, unless someone can find historical reference to the term ‘slabside’, I’d suggest using the term street car instead.

I will now climb off the orange crate
