Hey everyone, I just recently purchased a 1966 F85. It has 42k original miles on the 330 V8. It is practically flawless inside and out with the exception of a dent in the right rear fender. My father in law knows a lot about classic cars and restoration and he will be helping me but does anyone have a suggestion as to who might sell 2" drop springs for the front and rear? I've found websites who sell the 2" for the rear but only 1 1/2" for the front. I don't mind cutting the front coils if needed but I would prefer to have them pre-cut.

I have pretty big plans for it. I will update you all with pictures. Here is how it looks as of now!

Welcome to CO. There are quite a few companies that sell them. Moog is one and classiccarsprings.com will send you info on non stock ride height coil springs for car for $10. https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/we...e1535e1c173e6b

Good looking ride you have there by the way.
