    also, i've heard of flipping spindles to get a car lower in the front does anybody know if that's possible with this car?
     
  4. no, you can't. The upper and lower loops are different diameters on a Mopar. Also, the upper is smooth bore with a pinch bolt, and the lower is threaded. Works on Fords though.

    A photoshop I did a little while ago. Added the fronts of some 53 chev rear quarters and the side chrome from the same car.
