suspension conversion
Hey how are ya? I'm new to the group, i hope I don't look too dumb. I've got a 66 Ford Fairlane 500 with a 289. I'm looking at rebuilding the front suspension and I wondered if I should look at maybe one of the conversion kits from a mustang II with the tubular a-arms and the rack and all the other bells and whistles. I looked at the kit and you have to remove the shock towers and cut on the car some. Is this kind of conversion overkill for a pretty much around town grocery getter? I would probably want to convert to disc brakes later on and maybe dropped spindles. I also don't like the stock power steering set-up all that much. Will cutting the shock towers out and the other mods hurt my cars value very much? Thanks a bunch for your time i really apreciate it.
We managed to get a couple of other small things taken care of. One was blacking out the front of the core support. When the sun hit the front of the car just right that green paint on the core...
