Nice vert and welcome to the Fix.

Any plans to maybe lower it a tad? That pic makes it look like you could take her off-road! :p

I have owned her since Feb 14. I have not really thought through what all i want to do. The bushings were gone in the shifter and it did not lock into gear. Fixed that right away. Replaced some missing interior fasteners and a couple snaps for the boot. Working on diagnosing a minor transmission leak. I would be open to suggestions on lowering?
 
If you think it could use a bit of a drop, first step would be to install a new set of front coil springs of the "drop" variety. Stock from the factory these cars sat really high with the nose even up more than the rear so a lowering spring just sets them where the factory probably should have originally. While you're in there would be a good time to do the Arning drop as well and reposition the upper control arm. Really simple to do and makes a nice improvement in handling. Some have found it to do a very minor amount of actual lowering affect too but its really about handling. I'd start there and see how she looks to you before addressing the rear. Some guys like a little rake to the stance. If not, losts of ways to go out back with different spring set-ups too.

Nice, and original California plates still on the car. Mine were too until 5 years ago. Apparently you didn't notice the no parking sign o_O
