I used GT springs in front and the shelby drop. After the engine and tranny went in I got this. I adjusted the Camber and it got a bit better after this pic, but I am worried. Could I have the wrong springs in there???

Engine back in.

Toploader 4 speed installed and rods aligned. Shifts perfect.

what rate are the springs? I'm not familiar with the GT springs if you have 600+ Lb springs in there. All it needs now is to have the back lowered and maybe some swaybars and wheels

They are part of Glazier Nolan's Performance Handling package. They just quote them as "HD Coil Springs"
I know that side to side comparison of them to the old springs had them an inch shorter.

looks perfect to me(if you lower the rear)

LOL, that's great after I installed the leaf springs from the same package.

My friend has 1 inch lowering springs and the shelby drop, and his 68 looks about like that.

Yeah I think it'll look good if you can lower the rear.
I'm thinking about using my old 6cyl springs up front to see what it does. However, I'm doing the Shelby drop as well so I'm hoping for no issues.

I will go with it for now. Wheels are next. I am so torn with what to go with. I have thought a bout a set from Coys and then I go back to something more vintage. Uggghhh.

That's strange, my 1" drop 560 springs from NPD were 4" shorter than my stock one's 16in.vs 12in. and my front didn't drop that much. My tire tread on 15" still had~1/4"-1/2" space to the fender lip? and I did the Shelby 1" drop too.
