    I put new front springs on my car and love how it sits now.
    used to sit up in the air like a jeep and hated it.
    Enjoy

    Hey Rob - do the tires rub at all? I like the stance.

    No rub at all lock to lock... unless I'm trying to corner alittle too fast. Then the fronts will grab the trim. It's done that once on me and I slowed down my turns. But I don't think of this car as a road coarse machine. Mainly staight line power shots!
    Thanks

    Thanks for the compliments guys,
    I have the Moroso Drag springs part number 47140-100

    and yes some speed bumps are gonna hurt but I was so sick of how it looked before,I will take that chance.

    Thats a great stance.........little scary in the front, but if the headers don't bottom its perfect

    Car looks super:kodak:

    thanks, I have to admit, I cringe everytime I come up on a deep bump but so far no scraping.

    thanks Dave,
    I see you too have an artistic eye. I have done a ton of photoshop work in the past to my cars for the fun of it. someday if I can I will post some of the work.

    Rob,
    Now I know what the '70 Stage 1 car that I just got, used to look like, at one time...

    Yours is very nice!
    Mine has a long way to go, before it will look like that, again!

    How far is Council Bluffs from Davenport?:Do No: :Brow:

    Thanks,
    and congrats on your new car.
    Council Bluffs is on the border by Omaha Nebraska, I think your across the state from me.
    It would be a hell of a long walk.:)

    Thanks Dave
    Looks like you added a bit more color from the one you sent 2 years ago.
