RT/10 TOTAL width???

[Magicboy2]

Well I've searched high and low, but I can't seem to find any number on the width of an RT/10 from side mirror tip to tip. This is a concern for me as I have somewhat of a narrow garage space.

I'd assume this is the widest part of the car, but I doubt it's included in the standard measurement of 76" that you see published.

Does anyone know the TRUE width of the car, including the mirrors? This, of course, assumes that the mirror tips are the widest points.

I think the rear fenders are wider with the mirrors folded in. for getting in and out I'd give yourself about 8-10 feet at least.

Just measured mine; mirror tip to mirror tip; 81 inches.

Thanks. You'd think they'd publish that number somewhere.

Just measured mine, mirrors are about 81 inches.

Side sills are about 77-78 inches, this is what makes trailer parking difficult.

A ha... I was reading through some old posts regarding trailering, and others have said that the widest point on a Gen I was from exhaust tip to tip (side pipes!)... could anyone be nice enough to provide that measurement??

Thanks!
