the rear is easy and cheap, just install a lowering block kit. In the front, if you don;'t want to go too low, you could cut a coil off the spring. If you want to go lower, install lowering springs. You can use Mustnag springs, so see what Mustangs Plus has to offer. Don't go too stiff. Do you have a six? Maybe the 480# springs will work. For a v-8, consider something in the 500 to 600 pound range.

where do you find a lowering block kit?

I lowered my 63 Falcon by cutting the front coils. I cut 1 whole coil off, but in 1/2 coil sections because the shock gets in the way. Some say this is dangerous because the coil coil come flying out, but they forget the shock is there. I also did this to my two 66 Mustangs as well without any problems.

For lowering the rear, I wrote this a few years ago:
