After searching for a shop I could trust do do a alignment on my 69, I finally found one shop with a older gentleman who knew his stuff
He went over that car, took measurements, checked tire pressure and really took pride in what he did
The end result is amazing
The only modifications I have to front end is besides being all new parts
I have a sway bar, feel firm steering box, upper tubular control arms
The car feels like it’s glued to the road, conners flat
What a difference
Talking to the mechanic I told him if I was one of these young mechanics, my head would be up his *** trying to learn
He laughed and said no that’s not the way it is
That want to set toe and out the door
He took a picture of my car to add to his collection
He was a older guy I’d say early sixties
When guys like him retire and don’t pass on their knowledge as younger guys ain’t interested, that’s a real shame
But I shouldn’t be surprised I see it in my own trade
Either way in a happy with the end results
