So while I'm under laying in weld spatter. I look up at the shackles.

Next job.

 

wow nice find,one more thing to fix,seems u find treasures everyday,LOL

 

Ouch. I found that on the front of my truck the other day. Mine is actually missing.

 

Wow! Never seen them that worn out! I had one upper control arm bushing that was almost that bad, but my rears were just cracked from age.

 

I would inspect the spring pack. They are known to break and the extra jarring from no bushing wouldn't help.

 

It doesn't show well in the pic, The bushing is only half the prob. The shackle bolt is rotted from 1/2" to less than 3/8".

I'm kinda burnt out sanding. My arms and shoulders ache!!
I'll take a break and work on other stuff for a bit. Here's where I'm leaving off.

 

I decided to finish the dash. Much of the silicone didn't hold.I redid that and will finish in the AM.
Tried to fit the spoiler ends. When the quarters were replaced, they overlapped them at the body line. They look great,but they don't fit the spoiler.
I may look on craigslist and use something else,like a wing. Everybody has that 3 piece spoiler anyway.

 

Maybe get an early one piece spoiler that doesn't wrap over the sides.

 

The early one would be a good option! I was thinking a small wing like on a 70 GTO.

 

My friend has a brand new '69 T/A spoiler if you're interested? He was going to use it on his '69 Camaro, but decided to go stock instead. I think he'd let it go reasonably.
Looks like this:
