how do i raise the nose on my 66 cutlass? new springs and shocks.??

Yes, probably the springs have worn over time and that is why you have the lower ride heighth. Unless someone has intentionally lowered it, hard to tell. Does it look like a tail dragger?

I agree with Dan, years ago I bought some aftermarket springs for my 1971 Cutlass Supreme. They were suppose to provide a 1" lower ride height than the stock springs. When I put them in they raised the nose over 1" due to the factory springs sagging. I would change the springs first and see if that raises it to what you want. John

I just got a 71 cutlass conv. It sat pretty low in the front and I liked that. But I decided to rebuild the front suspusion and steering, I put new springs and shocks all factory replacement parts, now the car sits way too high ( for me) I guess that was the stock height. Your springs are probable just worn out.
