suspension using all spankin' new grade 8 bolts.  Just finished it last
month, and then I hear AN stuff should be used.

You didn't do too bad either! Lord knows how many cars are out there where
the PO went to the ace hardware and grabbed some bolts "about so long and so
wide"

Found a car recently with metric hardware forced into the suspension. I
could just hear the PO -  "Don't know why these is so tough." "Gotta be
right with met-ric." "This be-an a Jap-O-Nese car and all."  Same for the 66
with 8mm nuts force threaded on the SAE studded head. Oh Boy!
