Getting down with the bus, VW Bus.

My wife got me these two busses, thought I needed something less racey I guess. While they are fun to slide around the curves with, reminds me of my VW days back in the 80’s lots of winter sliding. Anyway, I decided to have a go at lowering one of them. Got it to a nice height so far, a little forward take. Might go lower, not sure yet.
First pic, mild drop. Second pic, more cutting required to get it that low.

Just my 2 cents , but I wonder how it would look with a little bit of a rake to it ? Raise the back end of it and add a little bit of a larger tire . Again just my 2 cents

It doesn’t show well in the picture but it has a noticeable rake to it. I might drop the front a little more to make it more obvious. Not to much, this is a road car not a drag racer. Lol

So how does it handle now
Nice job

Different. It doesn’t tip over in the corners anymore, but it hangs it’s tail out more. Still fun to drive.

Got to go low.

No ride like a low-ride! I’m not going quite that low on mine, but that’s cool.
