Mine isn't that big either....
1) rebuild engine, tranny, and rear end.
2) repair all surface and structural rust
3) get the car repainted
4) repaint my door pulls black, as some of the brown is showing
through where a bird doodied on one of them.
I should probably spend a weekend getting all that stuff done...8-)

it something with the wheels...?

this morning, the brakes locked on on the front right wheel, they
freed back up after cooling down, luckily I was only a mile from
home.

advice on my engine a couple of months ago, ended up replacing the
cam shaft, and the clutch as well. Runs pretty nice now.

car. I knew I should have opened up the door and greased up the
moving parts.... Should I replace with a pair of those fancy chrome
ones?

bumps. Sounds like my leaf springs are squeaking. Anybody have an
idea?

>3. Steering column loose. Although there isn't any "forward &
back" motion, it seems like a bushing is missing, because the
steering column jostles around on bumps. Also it shakes at high
speed..... Is this that felt bushing everyone was discussing a
couple of weeks back?

>4. Turn signal auto-cancellation. Max and some others gave me
advice on this one. Thanks guys!
