So I'm in the midst of my restomod / restoration and wanted some opinions on rear rail boxing.
Was wondering it its worth while?
My build thread is here 1971 Dodge Charger SE restoration.
I got to post some updates but front rails are in, front floor is mostly welded in and rear rails are on the front are set looking good. Might need a bit of tweaking at back, but almost done with that stuff.
Before I put my rear seat pan in, I was wondering it it would be worthwhile to box my rear rails in. I have a pretty mild 440 right now that is low compression. I'll likely end up supercharging it I'm thinking. Would boxing the top of the rails add a lot of strength? Would it be worth it? Or would it be overkill? Was wondering what others think.
