Default Wanted...GM "A" body lowering springs/shocks

I have a bone stock '70 GTO that needs springs bad! I know a lot of guys have gone to trick coil-over/air suspensions and have lowering springs collecting dust.
I may be interested in shocks too since the orig. GM ones are still on it...
I can Paypal,or send USPS money orders.
Thanks!!

I don't want to hi jack your thread, but if anybody else has a second set, I also have a 70 GTO in need of the same items, but only after GTX gets his due!

That's cool Jim...I know there's got to be tons of A body stuff out the with all the suspension mods I see on them,like DSE,etc.I'm trying not to go too far on my GTO,since it's so original,but it needs to be fun to drive!

Yea, mines a convertible, but it was a total basket case when I started it, wore a plazma cutter and a mig welder OUT doing my dad best to fix it. Worse part was I had it at a body shop to have it blocked and painted and the dude shut his shop down with my front end still in the place. Come to find out a former good friend of mind happened to "Pick it up" for me and I never saw it(the front end) again. It has been a long hard road to find the entire front end again but I have it. I built a 4 bolt main 455 HO motor for it and a 4 speed, Judge clone, Orbit Orange, 06 GTO PBR brakes on the front and LS's on the rear, Hotchkiss sways and tubular rear control arms with Koni's all around. Seriously nothing special, but love a 70 Goat. More of a cruiser car. Hope to have it painted in the next month.

You're from Pratville, I'm from Atlanta but live in Douglasville off I-20 this side of Atlanta, I'm a Troy University Graduate.

I work on service stations from Hogansville,GA to Demopolis,AL. My sis-in-law has a vac. home in Helen.I plan to have my GTO at the Hot Rod Power Tour when they are here in Montgomery,June 6th.
Sounds like your GTO is going to be nice!I have already gone overboard on my '67 GTX clone,and have a '55 Euro Beetle in the paint shop in Carrolton,GA. that is a handful.I have a 200 hp EFI 2275 cc for it.
So I'm not looking for a Schwartz chassis for the GTO!
