Default Re: 1930 Coupe front end shimmy

That front spring is worn out. The 1/4 inch spacer verifies this, a sagging front end decreases castor causing shimmy. A shopping cart front castors that have been smashed into parking curbs will shimmy. The perch spring bushing can be replaced on the car. I would disassemble the front end and fix what's worn out. The wish bone, perch welded to the axle just maybe ok, other than looking bad. Keep us advised on your work, and have fun !
