Default 70 Chevelle w/ 3" drop in rear

Went to LA today for a physical, and dropped by OPG to pick up some rear springs. The general plan was to order both the 2" and 3" and compare the difference. Since the 2" were out of stock I just picked up the 3" and installed them right when I got home. So I now have a set of Eibach 1.3" Rear lowering springs for sale if anyone is interested, PM me.

Heres the difference: 1" springs compared to the 3"

Looks good! What size wheels (18's and 20's)?

Here's my '72 (18's with Hotchkis front/rear springs). It's still settling (both front and rear), so it will lower a tad more. I guess I need to actually drive it for that to happen though

Looks like we nailed that rear fitment, with that 3" drop, that 20x10 fits well back there, with that tire. Looks good!
