Default Re: New Member! Suspension identification

Thanks for the quick reply Mart! I waited until I could steal the iPad from my youngest to reply. According to your information, and John's input the front axle is not a direct swap as the front is 2" wider than mine. John I bought the old car with the understanding the motor was free? That didn't prove to be the case. Have had ATF in it for about 3 months, but we've had a real winter here in Missouri. Unheated garage has not allowed me to work on it like I want. Original motor, 111,000mi. It has a trunk. Kind of interesting, it has the radio and the manifold heater/defroster. The pictures make it look much nicer than it is. But it's a straight old car. Lived its life in Overland, MO, a suburb of St Louis. Apparently the brakes began to fail as it aged. Has scuffs on the corners, and a mod dent on the right front. Doug
