The suspension will be kept as is but with new suspension parts as it is cheaper to buy new control arms and saddles than to get them rebushed.

Got the LTD started today. It drives quite well on gas as well as petrol.

the front window is broken, there is a bit of fire damage to the drivers door, drivers front door lining and to the headlining, but otherwise the car is in quite good condition.

The surround for the indicator on the front guards, just before the doors

Got my first new part for the mustang today. Eccentric Elliminators
Image

originally the eccentric was a bolt with two washers which had a hold in it offset to middle of the washer. this system wasn't very good as the washer & bolt tened to turn as the bushes wore out.
with the new system, it allows for 12 accurate adjustments of the front end and won't move as the bush wears.

Image
this shows where it goes.
