Re: 1967 step side build!

Well she's stripped down. Waiting on my Boyd fuel tank to mock up and transmission crossmember then she's to PC. Ordering wheels and tires tuesday. I gotta make a decision on front coil spring height. Already have 2 1/2" dropped spindles and 5" drop in rear. Thinking of a 1" lower spring. Any thoughts?

Re: 1967 step side build!

Why does some of my pics end up sideways? How do I flip them?

All depends on what look you want....I'm running a total of 4.5 in the front and 5.75” in the rear. But I went with a taller tire (235/70-25) in the front to improve LCA ground clearance.
