I decided to lower the rear it was way too high.
I've had a set of Calvert split mono leaf springs a long time I decided to see if they would work. Looks a lot better now.

Re: 1969 Mustang race car that I have owned since 1970
Today I moved cars around in the shop so I had room to jack up the Mustang and replace the old wheels and tires and finally got it out of the trailer. The wheels are Race Star 15 x 3.75 in the front and 15 x 10 in the rear with 5.5 backspace and 9 x 30 radial slicks.

Re: 1969 Mustang race car that I have owned since 1970
I wanted to replace the original stock tank with a fuel cell. I wanted the 4 gallon fuel cell, filter and pump inside the trunk. I came up with this idea of cutting the top out and mounting the bottom of the tank in the car so from the outside it looks original. We had a new stainless tank left over from another project so Brian cut out the top and used a piece to fill in the hole for the sending unit.

Why isn't it legal?
It doesn't matter I don't think I will be racing in NHRA. I will race at NMCA or NMRA events in the future.
