OOOhhh.......That car is lookin' awesome!  Boy that looks gooooo......ooood.  I took a look at a few of your pics and it looks like you're really doin' it up.  I noticed though, that when you blasted and primed your front A-arms that the mounting shafts were still attached to the A-arms.  Did you keep the same bushings or did you replace 'em?  Just bein' nosey.

Rick,
thanks for the compliments.
I bought them with the bushings already replaced. thus just blasted them.
I'm hoping to get an answer soon about my front center brackets.
Anybody out there know?
Thanks
Joe

Ben, thank you so much for the offer but I have a set of 68 brackets.
I do not have the headlight assemblies like you .
I have bucket headlights.
I do appreciate the offer though.
Joe
