Pro Street is a style of street-legal custom car popular in the 1980s, usually built to imitate a pro stock class race car. Pro Street cars should appear to be more at home on the dragstrip than the street, while remaining street-legal and not gutted like a race car or bracket race car. Typically called a back half or tubbed car.
Cars of this type typically feature two of the following three modifications:
- A highly modified V8.
- A narrowed rear axle coupled with oversized rear wheels & at least a 14" wide x 5+” sidewalls (located within the wheel wells) for maximum grip and wheelie bars.
- A roll cage.
Other than the rear suspension and wheel wells, cars of this type often remain unmodified from the firewall back, keeping stock floorpans, a full interior with windshield wipers, carpet, and working lights.
