Have spent hours searching and researching and have come up with the following proposal for my "68 vert that I am building into an SS350. As far as appearance goes I will be using 15" wheels and would like the front lowered more than the rear as I think the rear needs to be higher than the front. Look this over and let me know if I have made any errors or if you have any suggestions, etc.

Not sure yet. I am tired of researching and reading for hours. Definitely 4 wheel disc.
