    I recently put a dropped axle and reverse eyed spring in my coupe, finally got the steering hooked up so figured I'd drive it outside for a look-see. Needless to say I love the new stance, brought a stock old A to more of a hot rod! The rear is next, I have some 7.50's for it, along with a T spring to drop it a little. I also have a set of the Merc caps for all 4 corners. The front bumper is off bacuase I'm right in the middle of throwing some 32 bumpers on it.
    So, whatcha guys think???

    Kiwi Fruit- Forgot to add that...No, it was completly stock, brakes and all. I'm in the middle of doing Hydrallic brakes as well.
    Other than whats listed, I have this for it, along with a V8 ******...


    Chris- Thanks man! I have a couple projects going;)

    Bloomdog- It was about a 5 1/2" drop total (theres also a couple springs removed in front)

    I'd love to see it with the 7.50s, some elbow grease on the paint and a small chop.
    It looks great as it is though for sure..

    Not a fan of the bumpers or the B motor???
     
  23. The B motor is fine. The bumpers are probably alright, too. 32 grill- no. I know, you didn't say ...
