      1968 cutlass

      I just bought a 1968 cutlass 24000 original miles its not numbers matching but all original metal never any rust. Previous owner just did a frame off. He put in a 455 mildly built and a built 350 auto. I am going the protouring route. I just bought 17 x 9 rims and I am doing 274 40 17s. I want to do the suspension next. What do you think are my best options. My budget for the suspension is about 3000. Then I wil address the brakes. It has the factory front disk brakes and rear drum.

      I would first have to ask, what are your intentions for the car? I would say you can go ridetech's new Street Grip system if you just want to tighten up and cruise for 2k or you can go all in with the Stage 1 for a little over 3k. If you choose either, any ridetech dealer her should be able to discount both.
      Big dreams, small pockets....
