Title: Optional 6 Leaf Springs
Post by: 69LM1 on July 11, 2011, 08:43:28 PM

I finally got started on a 69 X66D80 I've had for a while, and just saw that it had six leaf springs. Not sure if these are original or just some hack add on over the years. The car was originally sold out of Curry Chevrolet on Long Island and had some motion add on's. It is also a "radio delete" no radio ordered car.

Anyone tell if these are add on's or original 6 leaf springs?

The springs are a modification of some sort; definitely not production.

I knew I had read about that option and it was a long shot........
