For my money that needs a tap with the stick at both ends. Low as you can go!

It would depend on your wheels plan,.. but I'd say flat slam on that,.. I like rake on cars that have a bit more visual weight at the back, but the boot line is too long for it to have that... Flat slam on wide steels + shiny hubcaps = win for me

Both should work, when (if) i get one it will be jacked at the back.

it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts

Slammed all round for me. Although a rake would work if you were going for a propper 70's period style, with slotmags, lakes pipes and all that jazz

;D ;D ;D thats when my benz hit the deck. mr somerset, is this your daily or your weekend/ show car? if its a daily, think hard about how low you can go and still be fairly painless to drive on a regular basis. I made the mistake of going for looks over pracicalty and mine is a PITA to live with daily. but don't let me put you off, I say, low as you can go at both ends. ;D ;D ;D

It has got that 70's vibe for sure...with all the fur interior etc etc.
But yes...it is my daily. I'm thinking no lower than a 3 1/2 - 4" clearance from the deck as is with britains roads theres plenty of speedbumps and sh*tty roads everywhere.

Jack it up all round and call it Henry Highrise II
Depends on the wheels.
I've seen a couple of Mk2 Fords lowered really low and they looked cack IMO.

Looking cool JS, As no one else has, here's the pchop. With those chrome caps, you really need to just clip the top of the rear one visually. Of course, you could always make some sublte fender skirts like Custard Cart showed how a few months back.....

The P-shop looks fab Its difficult to go wrong with a bit of a nose down stance but the rest of the car really needs to be up to scratch to get away with tail dragging...
