Thanks!

I agree but she wants what she wants... Good all the HD springs and front suspension/brakes back in. Waiting on a new steering box and a few extra pieces to finish the front end and I'll get some updated pics

Re: 69 Pontiac Lemans

After way too much delay I got everything wrapped back up and driving again.

I put in all new bushings, front end rebuild, HD (wagon) springs SYB shocks, brakes, quick(er) ratio steering box, hoses, booster, master cylinder, etc..

Drives like a dream!

Had to get it done in time so my wife could drive her car again before our son gets born.

What a good day.
