Hey all,
Was wondering if anyone had picture of a stock '69 SS 350 4-speed side profile
car with poly-glas F-70 14 tires? Mine seems to sit higher in the front lower in the rear. And the rear has new multi leaf springs that i put on. When I bought the car someone had put new front springs in the car. Don't know if they are Camaro specific springs or most likely NAPA they are black in color. I have the front end torn apart so I'm wondering should I just spend the $175 at Rick's for new springs? Don't have ability to post pictures but I could e-mail someone.
Thanks
Doug

My car came with the new super-duper computer selected springs. (as did all 69 Camaro's) Anyway, it sat so low in the front that the alignment shop wouldn't touch it when new. They said the springs were flat. The engine was all iron then. Now it is much lighter but with the same springs. Hell, the paper ID tags are still on the springs. I really should cut-off a coil but I might mess up a tag.;)
