The wife just aquired a 67 GP convertible that looks great but will need much work.

First we would like to raise the car a little as it rides on beautiful 15" rallys but the old springs are tired and she sits too low. We would like to upgrade the power ft drums to discs.

Does anyone have experience swapping springs, spindles & brakes from other GM models? Could all those items come from one model?

She will also need a new top and several chrome and light peices. Could I get some feedback on whether I should have a custom top sewn or purchase one off the shelf?

We want to start working on these items right away to get her back into shape ASAP!

Thanks for the help.

You need to ask these questions in the big car forums. The chassis has been covered in the 62-6 forum and is stuck there uneer the widest tire under a 65 B body title.

How about a section for the enthusiast to trade parts and cars? There are so many people who don't like to trade. The ones who do seem to irritate the people who don't trade. So how about a section geared toward them?
