... need to get some stock width rims - it's got 205s on, which now rub at the back occasionally.

(should be at bright in a couple of weeks.)

another inch or so out of the front suspension would be good also amazing how much a couple of little things can change the look of a car so much for the better in my opinion

Yep, another inch down at the front would have it at the right level.ATM you can see in the pic the front is higher than the back.

And your gonna need white walls with those caps .....
Looks way cool ,
The Vdub lacing works well

yeah. first step is some stock width wheels and whitewalls (to get the rears tucking under and lighten up the steering).
anybody got a set of 13"ers they don't want?

once we get the wheels sorted, i'll look into levelling it out - and maybe going a bit lower.

i thought the back was about an inch or more higher than the front (looking at the angle of the body - it's got a bit of rake to it.) looks deceiving cause the front arch is taller than the rear (aint it?).

just wanted to show the difference a quick fix makes!

this is an acceptable lowered height, im still working towards it

[mikey_ok]

yep. something to aspire to.

[Devilrod]

Yep sure is

Welcome to the forum Mikey
Had a quick go at the ride height on my 'puter...took it down about another inch at the front and 1 1/2 inch (lowering block) on the rear & added a set of spats .

The car looks great as is I just like to do "what if's", (an old Newsledder habit! ).

Gee that car is cool.

Thanks SunnyTim, Scotty thanks for the inspiration. Yeah, it's slowly coming downward - would be good to see a little less air between the tire and the guard! I've been tossing up the spats idea... can you get ones that you don't have to run the rubber strip around the join? (I think I read on here somewhere that you can. Was it from Smooth Customs?) I'll keep chipping away at it.

'Tis a good car you got there AustMod! Didn't know it was yours, until I read your thread recently.

Cheers,
