Thanks! As far as the tie rod goes..according to the fella where the car is stored...front suspension on the car is fine...more likely just too much horsepower for the driver.Word is he only drove the car 11 miles during his ownership...

As far as keeping everbody up to date. I plan on posting some pic's when I get the car and I plan on setting up an informal web-site so everybody can check in as the restoration progresses.

I DO have a selfish reason beyond I think it will be a challenging and different project to restore a roll over victim, I want to document for all to see that the car will NOT be a RE-BODY even though that would be obviously the easiest route to go.

All the super-structure/bracing/floors/tub/cowl and frame will be original as will even some of the exterior sheet metal and chrome.

I'll keep you posted...
