Pull the rear out, put the tires under there where you want them, measure between the wheel axle surfaces and send the whole mess off to Moser.  They'll make it right if you give them the overall width.

Car is at the shop , don't remember , will measure tuesday

Measured today (tuesday) On MY car - wheel backspace is 3 1/4  ,drum to drum is 50" ,  I have little more than 1 3/4 between sidewall and inner wheel well

make sure you measure YOUR car if you want it right !

I think a Dart has narrower wheelwells , my 70 did !
goodluck with your project
