1970 SS 396 Chevelle: My first job!

[BlueSS454]

I have it all torn apart...







I also found some issues, and I have to say there are some people out there that have NO clue what they are doing when working on a car. The one front spring was installed upside down. One of the control arm shaft bolts was cut short with a hacksaw. The front shocks were held in with nuts and bolts from the inside, that was fun to get off. Several of the rear control arm bolts were rusted to the bushings inner sleeve..nothing the good ol' air chisel couldn't take care of.

Then I found this. I can fix this, but I have never seen it happen before. This is the left rear shock mount on the top of the frame.
