Re: Your 60-66 bagged projects?
Here's some pics of what I've done on my 66. The front end is basically done now just have to finish mounting the rack. The front is on RE7 bags with unmodified Suicide Doors bag brackets. I've also dropped the front crossmember 5" up over the frame rails and added rack & pinion steering. I set the front clip on it today to see exactly where I'm at and it sits on the inner fenders with 28" tire. I can get another 2" drop by cutting down the lower bag cups to 1.5" and this is still on stock spindles. With the front sheet metal in place it looks really really clean under the hood since the frame rails are still down low in the factory spot instead of being raised like with a Z.
The motor also raised 5" and is working out better than I thought. I notched the firewall for distributor clearance and am raising the tunnel now.
