So, I am back working on the Belair. The 61-year-old front bushings are shot. I have little faith in the ball joints which are at least 42 years old, but likely much older.

I bought a set of control arms from Speedway Motors. They are made by MBM. They are good for the price.

Now I need springs. I am looking for roughly 500 lb/inch fronts and 200 lb/inch rears. I want stock mount springs, if possible.

Any suggestions?

This is for a low buck build. I want something very budget oriented. I need to save my nickels and dimes for the Scope Creep Nova.
