Radial tires? They will exaggerate this condition especially with worn front chassis pieces.

Me? And again, from what you describe, I'd check the front chassis VERY carefully for worn parts. Tie rod ends, spindle pins, spring, shocks and finally, PROPER alignment.

It appears the car sits very low, much lower than stock. Many guys, without the necessary knowledge, simply lower the car without realizing the geometry changes along with the height.
I actually am running a set of old bias ply tires on it. Yeah, the car was already lowered before I got it so I will try and have someone check out the geometry . I will also try and go through the list you made and go from there .
