Default GAP Racing - Finished product for 2013 - 1961 BelAir

This is a car we built year ago and it came back to us for a few upgrades. While we had it we took it out and had John Jackson photograph it for us.
During the build, the owner did not want to change the body at all, only add more power and make it sit lower. The car has been on many Cruising the Coast events and he hits a lot of car shows back in Louisiana where he is from.

1961 BelAir :
Air Ride Technologies Complete Suspension Kit
Frame off Restoration
Ford 9" Rear End
SSBC Brake kit
TH400 Transmission
572 Cubic inch BBC
March Pulleys
Vintage Air
Raceline Wheels 18/20
Dakota Digital Gauges
Custom stereo system
Custom Stainless Exhaust system
Factory Style interior w/ Bench seat

Here is a few pics of the build

Looks like Ride Tech Strong Arms, what spindles did you use and are they drop or standard height?

Thanks for posting.

Jon, it is Ride tech strong arm setup. I think it is CPP 2" drop spindles but it has been a while since we installed them

I love the 61's. This car gives a whole new meaning to "sitting pretty."
