Air Ride Suspension
Hi everyone, my name is Kevin and I am 16. I plan on building my own rod as soon as I can get enought money to do so. There is not alot of nice old cars up here in canada left to choose from so I am planning on building one from almost scrap. I have been into cars for a long time, my father got me started when he brought his friends mustang over to show me a real car, and from that day on we started looking for a father son muscle car project.
I plan on building a 34 ford coup with the research that I have done and hopefully I will get a few oppinions on this, I was thinking of getting the california kid style glass body from gibbons with a 3" chop and slanted window posts and a pro street chassis from TCI.
My question is, I was looking at a pro street chassis from TCI for a 1934 ford 3 window coup. I was wondering since air ride suspension is offered on this chassis, should I get it? I want only the best if I am planning on building my first and probably only car that I will ever get the chance to. I would also like to know if air ride could handel extreme amounts of horsepower and not pop the rear air bags? Also what size tire would you think would look nice and also function the best as both the frame and body will be set up to accomidate larger than normal tires, i do plan on driving this car on the street and taking it to the drags once in a while. And if anyone has had any experience with these companies before either good or bad I would like to here from you?
