Re: GTV Front End Height

["Steve Alfalfa" <alfamale@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Not enough on this topic yet for me as my GTV is now up on jackstands in 
the garage, and prepped for total spring removal and replacement.  This 
car was manufactured in July 1974, and bought new in California in 1976.  
The front end has always been raised, which gives it a 'Chris Craft' 
posture that is its only aesthetic blemish.  I've understood that 
federal headlight height requirements were responsible for the 
distortion, and that only a change in springs could level this model.  
Given a choice, I'd rather pull out spacers so as to keep the car as 
stock and Italian as possible.  Anyone out there with some definitive 
experience rehabilitating a GTV to how God intended it to be?  Also very 
curious as to how such changes affect the suspension settings and wheel 
alignment.
