Russ, great thread and car looks awesome. If it's not too much trouble, can you post some pics from rear of car? I'm putting 15x8 rally's all around on my 78 and am deciding between 60 or 70 series 275's... I'd like to see how that looks on yours. Thanks again man,

Here are a couple pics. I don't know if these REALLY show the stance very well. I'm VERY happy with it. The '79 sits a bit lower than stock due to the Hotchkis coils. If these don't get you what you want, let me know and I WILL get better pictures!







































Let me know if you'd like different angles. Seems like the lighting was HORRIBLE for some of these.

The Monte was definitely worth all the effort. I'm jealous of your barn as well.

Thanks Russ, pics are great. Like the rake. Those 275's don't rub?

Last year on Power Tour I had 2 x average size adults in the back seat and a trunk FULL of luggage. They rubbed a bit. I had installed some spacers in the rear coils, but it didn't help. It has never rubbed with 2 people in the front and a truck FULL of luggage though. But, add those 2 additional passengers with the luggage......
