Hi all listers

Recently purchased a '66 SV most likely coming from the US (I'm living in
France). Car is now being fixed by a specialist friend of mine since I'm not
a mechanic expert (hope I'm not the only one throughout the list if so don't
blame me !) and really don't have that much time for that : shock absorbers
and bushes urgently needed to be changed for minimum safety since staying on
the road was really a game of skill !

Other problem I have (maybe related to above mentioned one : loose elements
on suspension ?) is slammin' noise coming most likely from the rear of the
car every time I'm accelerating and sometimes slowing down. Could be a loose
transmission shaft, have you any other idea from your own experience that
might help me investigating ?

Another question, as already mentioned car is definitely coming from the US,
serial # is B395013232LRX, is this car known from some listers : I know it
would really be great fortune but ...who knows ?

Best regards from France
