Hi CJStefan, after reading your post I have done the "research" and ordered the Moog cc850 springs, along with matching spring pads and shock absorbers, from Amazon. Cost was $183.17.

I have also ordered the Shoebox camber adjustment kit.

This is for my 1950 Ford.

A lot of our roads, in NZ, are rough and winding, I think that the progressive feature will be a saviour from bottoming out with a car that is too low.
I cant imagine going as low as you want to go without only traveling on smooth concrete roads.
I personally would imagine Moog springs and the 1 inch spacers would be at the limit of good drive-ability, anything more is more about image only.

I will post photos when car is re-sprung, the car is still in USA awaiting shipping.

I look forward to photos when you make your decision.

Geoff
