I will try and post pictures as soon as possible and the addiction has taken hold. Just curious, where is the spellcheck for a post ?. I would like to remain as correct as possible.

Re: Introductions (Bryan78SA)
Thank You for the welcome Sir, I think I made a good choice. I must admit I did have to look at the car a couple of times,the two tone has to grow on you.Mine has the red interior,silver tops,ps,tt,pw. I have started on the rear trailing arms, I suppose I might as well do the worst of it first. The car was well taken care of and in great shape and I knew suspension work was needed as everything is original down to the rivited ball joints but it drives good. After 20 years of military service (Army) I now have my dream.

Re: Introductions (Bryan78SA)
Pat, The wheels and tires were like night and day on the cars handling !!. I spoke with the previous owner and he knew it needed a little suspension work and thought it was an alignment problem causing the minor shake and traded the car in not wanting to do suspension work. A set of trailing arms are being built for it now, then its onto the front. Thanks again for the help.
:cheers:

Re: Introductions (Bryan78SA)
Bryan, if you need a spell checker, I suggest you write your post in MSword than cut and paste into your post. It doesn't keep me from appearing to be an idiot, just a fairly good spelling idiot.
