    Desired ride height....

     



    Here's a few examples of the approximate ride height I'm going for.....Ithink these a low enough to look cool and still be practical to drive on the street. Just have to watch for curbs...

    That'll be cool too, Bobby. With the Cobra brakes I have to have at least 16" wheels on the back. I wanted to run 17's anyway so it's all good. Have you decided what color you're painting yours yet? I haven't.

    Also, Bobby, if you haven't done anything with your clutch pedal yet, on page 143 of Bob Drake's new catalog he has a 39 Hydraulic Brake & Clutch Pedal Assembly that's designed to use the orignal 3 bolt MC or the later 2 bolt Ford MC with dual reservoir. pt#91A-2473-K, $250. Don't think it lets you use a power booster if you wanted power brakes. Looks like a nice bolt-on unit for 35-38 Fords if you don't want to hassle with re-working yours.
