That is perfect,and very nice!! These cars did not sit on the snubbers in the front when new.And the back was always lower. I like them like that.I hate the 70,s rake!

John,I dont want the front lower,would just like the car a LITTLE more level,maybe that was why it had rear air shocks when I got it.Tom

[R68GTO]

Tom, did you measure the rocker height from front to back? I believe a correct stance has the rocker level. I tend to like just a scootch of forward rake, if you want that just add the air shocks or put a 1/2" spacer under your rear springs.

the more photos I see of your car, the more I'm thinking that someone might just be me!

OK,finally could not stand the stance or the ride.Put a set of Airlift bags in the springs.I think I have it about where I like it.Will drive it this weekend and see if it settles at all.Tom

[The Boss]

The shadows make it hard to tell Tom.

[tom s]

those are both now,it in 1 in higher.The front is 28in from the wheel well moulding center to the ground.The rear was 26 and is now 27 1/4.The ride if firmer but does not seem harsh.Will know a lot more sunday afternoon.Having breakfast with Wheelspin and a couple other pontiac owners.Will put about 60 miles on it that AM.Tom

[Greg Reid]

Just as a comparison, I just went out and measured mine. 26.50" rear, 28.75" front. Tires are 15" P-215/70s

Here is day one pictures of my IV and how the stance looked.




Car unloaded at Dick Marson Pontiac zero miles


Car being flogged before it was lettered


Day two after dealer had raced the car for 69 season and sold in 1970.


Picture of the car today, sat for nearly 30 years with engine out on jack stands, original springs and suspension, slightly higher due to old school cheater slicks .

those cars just don't look right with skinny skins

[elefantrider]

What tires are those? Look like Coker Redline Super Sport F70s?

I think the side body shape and stripe both leaning down toward the back makes this body style look lower in the back when it isn't. to offset that I feel the car looks better picked up in the back a bit like you did. I do appreciate stock looking cars more than when I was younger and saw everything lifted with big wheels in the back,, But I have a real problem with cars that look like they are bringing home cement bags from the Home Depot, Just my opinion,, On this everyone is probably going to see things differently. But what you like is more important. Its not like your asking would it look better with a big urinal scoop in the hood, It can easily be changed. So I say your Good To Go. Just me , I say cars dragging butt look like cars "dragging butt", And cars that are even or just a tad higher in the back look "Light And Lively". Nice car either way.

Love the gold Tom, my first GTO was Signet gold 67.

LOVE the day one pic of your Judge. Wondering about the silver grill, obviously not the "black grill" like most Judges?? And here is mine, on its way to the Pontiac "Celebration" in Rhode Island

[Pontiyak]

Here are 2 photos of my car. One is car at 3 days old black/white. In late May 69.
Color one was taken in 1970.

There is the original stance of these cars.

Thanx Dave

If you look at old magazine ads on Ebay, and GTO books that show original advertising, you can see the rears were quite low.

tom s- your car looks great with the new stance! Were the airbags easy to install? I'd like to look for a set and do the same thing to mine!
