Hot Rods Pictures of your lowered Willy's coupe

Can you guys help me out with finding the proper stance on a 40 Willys? I'm looking for pictures of your lowered Willy's coupe. Also can I have your measurement from the ground to bottom of the front and rear bumpers if you have them? If not from the ground to the top of the front and rear wheel wells. Thanks!!!

 

Let's see what yours looks like.

 

Exactly!

 

Ya - what they said!

 

P.M. sent

 

For some reason I can't get the pictures to load. I will try tomrrow but I measure 11 11/4 to the bottom of the rear bumper and 9 3/4 to the front. I measure 28 1/4 to the rear wheel well and 24 1/4 to the front. Thanks

 

Got the new wheels and tires on and the stance looks good. Problem is I only have 2 1/2" clearance to the pan.

Im thinking "new oil pan". Shorter and wider sump with new oil pump pickup sitting in a box with trap doors ala road racing style.

 

This is a friends with dropped spindles and no air in the bags, way too low. He will soon replace them with stock spindles.

 

I have 2" drop spindles as well. Everyone has an opinion but to me the stance is damn near perfect. As you can see the engine sits pretty low. Thinking of redoing the motor and trans mount to raise the engine and increase the ground clearance.

she is as low as I could get her without air bags.

 

love it low!

 

I take it this where we are all supposed to say "OH MAN!!! THATS SO PERFECT!!! YOU SIR, ARE A ROD GOD!" YOU NAILED IT!!!"

there you go, job done.

 

Thanks! Can I print your reply and hang it in my trophy room?

 

Without a doubt, Sir. It will be worth almost as much as the paper its printed on!

 

Do you charge for this service?

 

I consider smart ass comments and general all-around wise-cracking to be more of a public service thing....
