i think steering box raises are a little overated unless your going tubs,just going from my experiances,mine sits about 2.5-3 inches from the ground and i hav'nt hit it once,though i aint hit a speed bump yet

It really is a cool SC.
I like to see Aussie Splits with Aussie style racks.
After all, how many of the EMPI accesories would've been widely available here during the 60s?
Nice Willys Jeep grill on the wall too.
