[SS1156]

I am putting together a list of things to purchase. I found the car that I want and I will be able to afford it after selling the Saleen and it will still give me some breathing room cashwise until I find a job. The car has a running 307 in it and the owner said that it might be a little tired so I located a decent 327 from a friend for $500 that's from carb to pan ( I love you Rodney) and I will have to have the TH350 gone through I'm sure. Thank God I have a buddy that works onb TH350's for a living and told me not to worry about. Ok getting back to my plans, and please correct me if you think I should change the order that this stuff should be done in.

1) Completely rebuild suspension: A-arm bushings (trying for used or get Lee to help out with some upper & lower arms), ball joints, springs (owner told me that they are Hotchkis springs & need to ck them), idler arms, center link, pitman arm, ck or replace steering box w/ quick ratio, and whatever you guys can think of. I figured this would be the best place to start. If you guys know of anything else I need to check please chime in. I thought the front suspension should be the starting point because in my mind you need a good sound foundation to build on.

2) Rebuild the brakes: The car has manual disc brakes up front and manual drum in the rears. I really wanted Baer 6 piston calipers w/ 13" slotted rotors. I'm not a fan of drilled ones. Then I was thinking of the T-4 4 piston calipers w/ 13" rotors in the rear also. I am totally open to advice on the master cylinder because I am a novice when it comes to stuff like this, so please let me know what you guys think I should install. Of course I may have to settle on less expensive brakes, but what the hell I can dream right?

Let me know what you guys think.
