I’m taking a similar path to get Penny back on the road as I did with Frankentruck, but slightly different in certain areas. Now that Penny runs well, I decided to start fresh in the suspension, steering, and brakes department. I started the tear down today. Hopefully I’ll finish that tomorrow before heading to the beach with friends for the rest of the week.

Anybody heard of the original upper ball joints lasting 150k miles and still being tight? The rivets don’t lie on these control arms. Makes me lean more towards the idea that the odometer hasn’t rolled over yet.

I had plenty of caked on dirt to scrape off. Prepping the original parts for paint is not going to be a good time.
