The rear anti-sway bar hardware looks like it sits about 1 1/2" off the pavement. Scary stuff unless you only drive on super smooth roads. Is this common with the ERA Jag setup?

BTW - before Ol' $hel started bustin' heads an' takn' names, "replica" Shelby American v.i.n. tags were very common and were even available directly from most replica manufacturers. Of course if you used one, you were supposed to stamp your correct numbers on and not a fake CSX number.

hardware looks fairly new and is a bit long for the standard ERA set up.

Normal ground clearance for the anti-sway bar link is about 4" and, since the link rises and falls with the suspension, stays that value as the chassis moves up and down.

Yup, that is why the 6" long (estimated using known points of measurement and size values of other things in the picture) stud seems a bit out of place
