Does it still have the beam front axle?
You can modify the axle and move it above the springs instead of being below the springs. If you do this, watch the oil pan clearance. Short of this, you can probably remove every other spring from each front spring pack. The next option is a Mustang II suspension, or other front frame clip (like a Dakota).

Have the brakes been upgraded?
Also, take care of that windshield, they are hard to find and expensive, only fit 54 and early 55. Gene
