Is there a make/model of car sitting in the junkyard that would have a factory rear coil over that resembles a QA1 unit? It would need to have about a 12-18" ride height. I need to mockup while I design/fab mounting brackets and make sure exhaust, panhard bars, etc do not run into each other.
Ideally with this style mounting:
Thanks for any suggestions!
Dodge Vipers have exactly what you are looking for.
Although - they are Viper parts so they come with a Viper tax.
Fronts from Triumph Spitfire or Lotus Elise.
Here's a pic into the wheel well of an early S2 Elise:

That is a decently cheap viper part thankfully.
Jaguar XJS has them and older Jaguar XJ6/12
If you do decide to go Viper, go 96+, Gen II or later. Gen 1 Viper stuff is specific to that generation, a lot of Gen II stuff crosses over to Gen III and forward so more better options on the used market for a drop in Penske, Ohlins, Fox, etc after you mock up with an OEM shock.
OEMs are Konis as I recall so not terrible.
