Since I have had no luck getting rid of my 75 parts car ( now body shell ) as one, I have started taking off what I think maybe useful in the future. The rest of the car will be scrapped in the coming week. I know it is getting hard to get parts, trim, etc., so this is why I am trying to save what ...

I ordered a set of AJE upper a-arms. Should take 3-4 weeks . $369 to my door.

Box your control arms when you change the bushings.

I would love tubular control arms,just not in the budget this year.

I swear by Autolights.

I got the heads back from the shop already, and I got the tranny back too. Talked to my engine builder yesterday and he told me he was just in the process of tearing down my short block. Once it's back and everything is reassembled I'm gonna order a set of lower front control arms from AJE to go wi...
