Hey all,
The tour went great. Saw quite a few 66-67 and newer Fairlanes.
The only time my tools came out was to help fix a Chevy. Haha.

Did you settle on one yet? I may have a lead on one that you work direct with but he typically only goes as far east as Chicago.
Let me know if you want a contact number. |

Guys,
Does anyone have radial tire alignment specs for a 69 Fairlane/Torino? I have the stock specs which were meant for bias tires originally.
Thanks for your help!
