It's that time again fellow gear heads. Thought this would have been posted much earlier.
I took the weekend off to attend, figure I might do the Friday night viewing, or Saturday morning.....or maybe both times
Last year I hung around two days.
I will be the short balding guy, glasses

I think you need to lower the nose of that car about 2" Morris. Just a personal preference.

It`s been bugging me too Sherm, the previous owner put new front coil springs and now the front does sits too high. I`m not quite sure how to lower the front, I don`t think I want to cut the coils.

A bigger engine will make 'er sit lower
Might have to resort to cutting the fronts too, often times it's the back that has sagged.

If it`s just the back is sagged then why not raise it instead of cutting front coils? Is this on the 68 Mustang convertible?

do those have spring isolators Morris? On my buddy's cobra the PO had put Lowering springs in it and didn't put the isolators back in, resulting in about another inch of lower. It sits way too low and hits on everything so he put the isolators back in. It raised it up the perfect amount.
