Front end to low, what to do?

I just bought a Slantnose built on a 69 frame. Is there any way to raise the front end? Everywhere I go I am scraping, including my own laneway. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Brian

Brian.....

Front end height is easily adjustable likely....not 100% familiar with your year.

You will get told to use the search button.....it's valuable.....also, order 101 projects for your 911 from this site....amazing book.

Start by reading this thread (found it on a quick search).

(Pic) How adjustable are our front ends?

Where in Ontario? I'm in the Brooklin (Whitby) area.....there are a bunch of us in the GTA who love to help out anytime......if you want to meet a bunch of locals (assuming you are local), every Saturday am, 10am and later.....people meet behind the Starbucks on the Queensway, across from Sherway Gardens.....

Good luck.

Can reach us on the Canada page easily....

There are two 11mm adjuster bolts under the car...one for each side, to raise and lower the front end. Clockwise raises it; counterclockwise lowers it. Tons of posts here...search "front ride height adjustment."

You will likely need to realign the front if you raise it much.

Pics?
