I have recently bought this 1972 Spider, know very little about it or where to buy stuff, but willing to take the journey to make the car a head turner.
I live in Lebanon, (Middle East) and very happy to have found this site.
Cheers to you all.

Thanks for the welcoming note as well as the encouragement.
I will post some more photos soon. The car is at the garage being worked on the front suspension, as it is too low. Once back, I will take some more photos.
Tarek Thank you too. You took me by surprise :-)

Fine, here is my 77'Spider
Sorry for the bad pic quality. (phone camera)
Its a 77' Spider. Bought it from guy who tried fixing it with 2 left hands and cheapo tools. Lots of head aches and almost my marriage later its almost how I want it. I love Conedriver's Spider, that's how I want it to be. Engine, wheels and suspension are done, little tweeks here and there. Interior is worn, but still acceptable. Bodywork is next. Definately want those flares so I can use spacers to widen my track for better control riding the canyons in Malibu.

I think it is more a case of "low rise tyres" than a case of a high rise suspension....

Or maybe a bit of both???
Talking of which, where on this forum should I go to find facts about these cars.
I am just wondering, my first one, as to what should the clearance be between the lowest point on the fron of the car and the road??
Cheers

ALTHOUGH THE SUSPENSION IS 25 YEARS ON THE CAR, THERE ARE NO PROBLEMS BECAUSE IT HAS ALONE 3000 KM THE LAST 25 YEARS
