If it checked out, I think I would like it better at 19.

Is it me or is that car really up in the air, especially the back.
Small tires? I could probably get under those side-pipes.

It`s not just you bats.... I bet she goes sideways down the road! And yes, looks like it has a lift kit on it too!

So look at the rear wheel picture
Are my eyes and brain playing games or does it look odd to you too ?

Car is just sitting way high on the frame. Front springs installed wrong? Wrong springs? Mono rear spring swap without extending bolts?
Rear wheel appears toed-in because it is a '69 which does not have a flare behind the rear wheels (IMO).
There are "problems" with the suspension. Could be minor; could be major.

‘All new suspension”. It looks high in the front and the back. It’s got 255/60 tires so they aren’t the problem. Front might be a little high because of the L98 heads.

I'm betting that it has new springs, which are causing it to sit high. That and I think it picture was shot using a wide angle lens, which will cause distortion at the outer edges of a picture.
That's a pretty ugly gap in the upper left corner, of the right side headlight door.

my cars PO had mine toed in so bad I had black soot on my rear quarters so bad I thought I was burning oil . then I noticed the tires were bald by the end of the month....haha. After measuring it, it was toed in about 1.25 inches. That thing would jump to the side about 6 inches on every good size pothole.
For the pic, its probably a fish eyed lense or optical illusion, its way to obvious to be driveable

Maybe it's me but the front wheel looks off too. The camera lens hopefully is the culprit.
