anyone know of a deck lid spring offset to use when you use the lid offsets- i saw one on the samba for close to 40 $$$ ---gotta love it offets-11$$ spring ext. 4o$$$ -or any tricks that you may have used-- i got a really long screwdriver that would work but want something cleaner-- what about hood hinges-- the shock looking ones--found on new dodge chargers--maybe too long ... _________________ flat black 68 with biggies on back skinny up front- no power and i dont need wax!!!always ready for icecream !!! |

Just get a 71+ decklid with twice as many vents..
Then space it out at the bottom 2"...
Or were you adding the spacers for the look?? _________________ Jake Raby
