    Cold A/C = great.

    As for the ball joints, they could cause that nasty squeak, and if so then they must be replaced - very dangerous.

    However, try to isolate the noise, maybe it is something else that just needs to be greased. WD-40 does wonders on old bushings that squeak.

    You should experiment and give it a nice rattle can paint job.

        Im sure it will be a gunie pig for my painting skills LOL!

        Isnt there a way to test? I hear you can jack a car up and try to pull left to right and up to down and it will tell you either or if there is any slack.

        O and I dont know if I mentioned it but the squeeking is almost completely gone now!? Maybe it is just bushings from sitting for so long?

                    If the noise stopped then it might have just been from sitting for a while. Maybe run it to a local shop just to be sure.

                      but why did you get a beater like that? 23/33 whats your camaro get 20/27 not like this thing is a real fuel saver.

                      at least you can haul parts in it and keep miles off your car.

                      shoot, i'm lucky if i get 20mpg on average in my tank (and I drive 80% hwy)

                            I suggest you invest a lot of time and just convert it to the ultimate sleeper. Ditch the bird, put the engine it that. :tup::tup::tup:

                              Just what I was thinking. I know of good shop around here that will look at it for free. I hoping it all just needs to be worked.
