you can put the later springs from a 70 roadster in the rear they set a 1
1/4 higher, or lower the front end down to where it should be. they raised
the front end for the US cars . the rear springs never go bad as some would
say , unless they have a crack or a kink in them. the rear of the car set
low on 68 and before , right off the show room floor.
