    Jamco springs, shocks, shock towers, and blocks in the rear. The tires are 520/13. The small tires make it easy to remove the wheels from the rear wheelwell and they do not rub, front or rear.

  2. HI,Glad she`s alright now.She has a great looking falcon.
    I restored a 1960 four or five years ago.It ended up with a 170 with 3 1bbl carbs and 2 speed fordomatic.
    To put on the 2 extra carbs,I just bored 2 more holes in intake log and welded on mounts.Then fabricated up progressive linkage.It was not fast,but it sure drew a crowd when hood was opened.
    Then painted it 2 tone silver and purple.Ordered some cheap chrome steel wheels from summit.Got 4 tires and I was ready to go.
    I also cut a coil out of front springs while front end was apart for rebuild.Gave it that hotrod stance.
    I never knew falcons could be lowered until now or I would have gone that way.Falcons are tough little cars.She will love it.

    That is a scary thought to get a phone call like that. Both your daughter and the car look liked they turned out fine! Looks good in yellow too!
