Re: drop pictures

Here is my '63 project - It's about a 6-inch drop in in the rear and 5-inch drop in the front as it sits in the photo.

Thanks! The 700R4 is built by the same guy who builds my racing PowerGlides for my Super Gas/Super Street drag car. Most of it is in the torque converter.

Where's your shop at? I lived in San Jose for 20+ years before moving to SoCal.

Thanks for all the praise, but it really isn't as dark as it appears in that picture. It is the stock original light green, more like my avatar.

Re: drop pictures

Billydonn,

Thank you. The wheels are American Torquethrust 2s, 17x7 front and 17x8 rear... both about 4 inch backspace. Rear tires are Goodyear 255x60, and fronts are 235x55.

FYI: the height at axle centerline for front fender is 27 1/2inches , and rear is 25 1/4inches.

Cheers...
