Thanks for the info! Being a babbit bearing engine, would that not be ideal for a weekend driver? I plan on restoring the COE but would like the engine to be as reliable as possable, Any idea's to where a guy can get parts like kingpins, brakes, ect? It has power brakes, and the emergancy brake is on the driveshaft, anyone know if the powerbrake booster is servicable? The brakes at present don't work, and I'm not entirely sure where to find the emergancy brake pad or suspension parts for that matter. I've looked at all the online shops, and they seem to only go up to 3/4 ton. Being the age that it is I would like to replace ALL brake parts, and ALL suspension bushings, shocks (there hydrolic)as well as any steering parts.
