My name is Greg Schmidt. I'm building a 242 which I got from my insurance agent's husband for the salvage cost. I'm trying slowly but surely to turn it into an ITB car. Right now it has 200lb. 11" stock car springs on the back, but it still sits too high in back for racing. That's why I posed the question - to see what others were doing. It has custom coil-overs in front. I'm tinkering around with different spring heights and weights to get the right ones.

I like the 142 race cars like yours a lot. I'd like to see it in person some day. I used to go to the Pontiac Uprising that they had at Mid-America Dragway every year, but they moved it to Wichita a few years ago so I haven't been down there for a while.

Thanks much for the info.
