You can cut the springs go a little at a time doesnt take much. My 41 is on coilovers now but i had it pretty low before i put a different motor trans and rear in it.

 

Are the coil springs pig tailed or straight top to bottom.

You can look in the Moog catalog and find a spring from a modern car that fits but is shorter.( I found 80’s regal springs worked in my 55 Buick)

I have heard of guys cutting pig tailed spring and making a large cup that can be bolted down to hold the spring in place.

Those spring clams deals are junk and not worth the aggravation.

 

They are pig tailed I was thinking of a cup to have them sit on..
