1961 falcon / Moon discs or not

BAD ***! Leave the wheels black / red also...looks sweet.

 

what size block should i use 3in or 4!!

 

that car looks gay as ****

 

Dear god, what the **** is wrong with people these days? it looked so much better before this jack *** ****ed it up, seriously, this thread has put me in a bad mood

 

riiiight...... let daddy keep paying for everything thats done to your car ...

anyways i found a shop that will make the u bolts now all i need is some balls to cut them coils!

 

I liked the stink bug stance....
But Lowered doesn't do it for me anymore...

and when you cut the coils how bad will the alignment be? is it really that simple as taking the shocks out .. cuting a coil and a half and putting it back in without messing up the tie rods thanks alot for your imput. brett

Check out some of the other Falcon threads here and you should find some answers. Off the top of my head, 3". I'm thinking you should decide if you want a slight nose-down rake, level, or lower in the back, first. Maybe you should lower the front end first, too.

 

yea ive been trying to read about cuttin the coils. just dont want to screw it up

 

Get over it ***hole.

 

It looks like you are totally confused with where you want to take this. It started out great. Then it looks like you got the muscle car bug and jacked it up and put the hood one it.

Then that got boring and you found the hot rod crowd and are trying your best to fit in with what you have.

What you had was perfect IMHO. Too much flat black... too many doohickeys. Get rid of the look at me embellishments and lower it to a respectable height like it was. Kill the hood and scoop and you'll be great.

It shouldnt take much effort or money to undo it.

 

If that's anything like a Mustang (and I'm sure it is ) lowering the front is a matter of relocating the control arm by drilling two new holes below the original holes and remount the arms . You can use the same spring or cut a little off and keep the ride quallity you had. I'm pretty sure this will lower it at least 3 inches . You have to compress the springs to get them out- BE CAREFUL !

 

now that's *****in'

 

All Falcons should be different

 

its a ****ing coil! i would think you would need more balls to paint a perfectly good painted roof and deck lid flat black then to cut the coils! if you even figure out how to use the pickle fork. HAHA

 

right because paint can come off

 

ill have to check into that thanks alot man!

 

Jayne nice work, whats your secret to photoshopping that nice?

 

thanks for the praise guys. just took two years getting a ***ociates degree in computer animation and the job I had for a couple of years was doing the graphics for the local TV station...so I know the "tricks of the trade" so to speak But this will make you say WHAT?!?! Now Im welding and just got my AWS welding certification. A friend of mine has a '39 ford PU he wants me to make the frame!

 

I had no idea Metallica was around in the 60's. dear god.

 

hey jayne is there anyway you could put some mooneyes discs on there .. maybe anodized black =)

 

let me find some and I'll post. Check back in 30min or sooner. depends on how fast I find em.

 

thanks alot man i apreciate it .. im gunna try and build off your picture but it probably wont come out as good thanks again for your time

 

Not a probelm man. Couldn't find Black moons so I had to improvise. Also a shot of my car and photoshop

 

thanks man ... thats a pretty sweet car any plans for it?

 

For the time being I want to find out how I should lower it proper and get the interior fixed. the rest staying stock as this thing is 58 years old and has never been restored aside from a repaint in the 70's. and I'm the 3rd owner! hows that for being cool as hell?

 

wow yea the exterior really nice .. cant believe third owner what a find .. im trying to find out how to lower my front too i just dont wanna start messing with cutting the coils haha.. good luck with yours tho .. it should come out really nice .. ive always like those big cars!

 

Uhhh your not going to be abel to lower the front any other way..especially in your price range. your going to have to man up and cut the damn coil.

 

And if you go 3 or 4 inch blocks in the back, you might need to change your pinion angle, or theres a possibility you will blow U joints.
