When I ordered the suspension kit from Centerline, Bob (from Centerline) told me that it lowered the car a bit, and that's what I wanted, so I didn't think about it at all. When I installed it I loved the way it looked (and still do) but it wasn't until I got it on the road that I realized how low it rides. Speed bumps are the biggest culprit. But thank goodness for the cage, otherwise I'd be buying a new pan.

Hi Everyone,

This is my first post although I have been "lurking" as a guest for awhile. Here are a few shots of my wifes 1985 Graduate when we picked it up in 2002. It had 27000 miles then, only 28200 now. We have 2 small kids and just don't find the time to use it.
The picture quality is kind of poor but they are the only pics I have of it.



The PO painted the valve cover, it has kind of grown on me.

Funny, I bought my new springs from Centerline as well. I wound up buying shims from Alfaholics to raise the front another inch or two so I wouldn't keep slamming the pan guard. The weird thing is I wound up cutting the rear springs

More 750F pics

The first one is with the original seats and tires (on original chrome wheels). The second is with proud custodians. And the third is a fun pic- notice the deer in the picture.
