I have often wondered the correct 'posture' for a GTE. I have observed in pictures the white GTE prototype with a tail down attitude. Most cars seem quite level. My car is nose down. From the centre of the knockoff to the wheelarch above is 14 1/4 inches. The rear measurement is 16 3/8 inches. Maybe my front springs have dropped-or my leaf springs need re-arching lower. Any ideas? Would other GTE owners mind going to the garage with a tape measure? The last time I bought springs they were not available-a fellow GTE register member had a small batch made up. Maybe there is a set of springs from another car that would substitute or are they available again?
