As long as you have been on this list, and you would even mention the "A"
word!!
LOL
If you are going to drive your car in a Spritely manner, why trust your life
to someone that is repainting shocks for a living.
When I did the front suspension on the 68, I got the lower A arm assembly
from Just Brits. and the shocks from Peter the Parts Pimp.
It was about 2 1/2 hours total install, and I have been very happy with it.
I would recommend asking Ed for the lower fulcrum on the A arms, to have
grease zerks on both sides.
