Just took some recent pictures today. Rack is off for now. It makes me feel better for now until I get the front beam narrowed because it looks lower haha. Comments welcome, thanks guys.

You should probably just send me the rack...I can't see it looking much better with it.... 
Looks nice!

The rear is down one outer notch, and the front has stock spindles and stock width beam with adjusters only. In terms of inches i have zero idea how much lower it is. What are stock fender height measurements? |

Very sweet ride! I hate to sound like the noob that I am, but, .... is that a 1965 ?
Mine is a 1965 under construction - I'm planning that very paint job for mine, but bahama blue and white, or possibly "peach" and white. I'm not sure I'm gonna be able to find a peach color I like. It can't be too girlie. I want it to look elegant / understated. Not sure that's possible with "peach".
Anyway, your car looks great! |

Nice ride. 
What size tyres are you running?
I've just converted my '67 to IRS.
I currently have EMPI 8s on, which I like, but the damn things stick out (no adapters).
I'm hoping to run 195/65/15", with the same setup as you, stock beam with adjusters and one notch at the back, but am unsure of clearance. 
Thanks, Nic
