I emailed the owner but he has not replied yet....I'm just wondering what you do to lower the front & rear to get that look...
I just purchased my first Vette...a silver 1977 with 52,000 miles on it.
Can anyone tell me or give me advice on lowering mine like that?
Thanks

Go to Red73's profile page, scroll down to the stats section and click on "all threads by Red73." His whole Vette history will come up in the threads he posted. Interesting reading. He did a super job on that machine.
