55.2-59 1958 Saab story

[6DoF]

oh man, time to find some different cruise nights. though i'm generally in the same boat. i show up in my LQ4 99 Jeep with full cage and coil-overs ... no one has any clue what they are looking at. but that one guy who wants to know is fun to strike a conversation with! i can't wait to get the 55 out to a show n sit with it.

I pie cut through the wiper trough to get the cab to slip down. It's lower, but dad and I were discussing cutting out the bottom of the fresh air vent ducting under the windshield and making a plate to seal off the cab to get the cab another inch or two lower. Then I might just make a cover plate to hide the gap above the dash. We'll see.

And I relief cut the rear wheel tubs to let the shock towers and air ride level sensor clear the flanges. This is with the wheel tubs sitting on the tires. I dig it. These are 22x9s. I'm thinking of looking for a bit smaller diameter wheel and tire combo that'll let my ride height be about this low with clearance to absorb bumps without bottoming out.
