I think that what makes that car look so good is the way it sits. The rear has been lowered and the front dropped the same to make it dead level. Notice how far the rear rim goes up past the lip of the fender. Great stance. We should all look so good after 46 years on the road. KTF

To lower the car to that height do you think the slots for the torsion bar anchors in the front beam had to be elongated?

There is actually quite a bit of travel in those front end adjustment slots. My guess is that it's as low as it will go in the stock configuration. Just right. KTF
