Broke down on the way to the car show

[33 IMP]

Looks like a tubbed four link or ladder bar car with coilovers to me. Op had a post not long ago about building either a victor or B1 headed engine for this car.

Beautiful car! Just curious - were you running air shocks?

No I don't run air shocks I have a 4-link with a koni coilover setup in the back

 

[James Memmel]

Yes the car is set up with an arrow Dana in it it's got a 4-link Waconia coilovers all's I did was break a weld and the whole Mount came off the differential that's why the car sagged so bad in the back. I got home and in an hour and a half it was all cleaned up and all fixed all ready to go again.

Is this a pic of your car from a few years ago?

Ive had it for years and couldnt remember where the hell I got it from. lol

 

[James Memmel]

That must have been like a couple days after I pick the car up

Big giant meats on the back. I’d bet on coilovers

I broke the welds on my rear shock mount on the way to The Drifters car show Saturday bummerView attachment 631656 View attachment 631657

What do you have in your system to hold the car up? leaf springs, coil springs, air bags?

Coil springs

Why is the mounting system so weak ? Proper welds don't break. Must be more to the story. Maybe add some sort of suspension travel stop in case you break at speed ?

No real damage to the car I'd say it's ok . My friend just finished his 67 camaro 454 4 speed 12 bolt had a friend of his weld the rear end spring perches on ! Guess he failed to burn the weld s in trying to make them prity instead. Rear broke free first big bump ripped both 1/4's off the car ! The paint didn't even get it's first scratch !

Looks low enough to scrape the back bumper going up the bed.Did he have to use a ramp?
Low cars or long 1/4 panels with tail pipes are a PITA!!
