This is my old '67 (no longer have.)
4.5" Transmission Raise, looks nice but was a massive pain in the ass, probably wouldn't ever attempt again. Car's covered in soot in this pic due to a garage fire.

It HAS been a while. I do miss having a car that low... I'm building a '66 now, gonna slam it but I doubt I'll go that low. As my only car, I'm looking for SOME reliability, lol.
