Default Alignment Shop in Illinois??

Hey everyone,
Recently put new ball joints and springs on my '79, and now I need to align everything (I also redid the rear suspension last summer- never aligned it). Can anyone suggest a GOOD and CAREFUL alignment place in the Chicago burbs? Also, Does anyone know when Elmhurst's "Cars Under the Stars" summer car show series starts?

I recently found one near me, but haven't taken my car there yet. "Preventix" Custom Auto Service in Mundelein IL. (847) 949-6085. 1/4 mi north of Rt 176...on Rt45. Might be too far from Elmhurst though. This place always works on old muscle cars and customs. Saw Vetts in there on many occasions, and cool street rods too!! Hope I've helped!! :cheers:

Very interesting. Mundelein isn't too far for me, if they'll do the job right. I'll check them out- thanks! If anyone has any other suggestions, please let me know.
