That rug is a most excellent touch! My garages are currently doubling as my HVAC shop, and no car will fit therein.

Maybe I should start a new thread for this titled Resurrection: Parts Phase or something...
Here goes.

After the short couple of days I have had with this beauty, I have listed a few things I know need replacement, and would like some advice.

Tires are new as of yesterday. Doorplate said 185-14, but car was wearing 3x 205/70/14 and a single 195/70/14. I went with the 205's and they seem to be ok.

The rear suspension seems weighted, like I have an engine block in the trunk. The rear wheels, especially the right one, are cambered in at the top pretty severely. I am guessing that the compensator on the axle is shot. Is there a way to pump it back up, or is it time to switch to the spring kit? Are replacement coil springs available for the rear corners?

Any advice on shocks? i.e. will the kYB's be OK or will I regret it?

The other suspension pieces I have seen on vendors' sites are the following bushings:
Control arm inner, as well as upper & lower outer
Sub frame
Sway bar
Trailing arm
plus:
Transmission mount
Engine mount (pair?)
I assume I will need all of these. How many of each are on this car? (I haven't had it on a lift myself, just peeked at the tire shop)

Then there's the components I probably need, but really don't know. Suggestions?
Idler arm repair kit
Steering damper
Tie rod – outer
Tie rod – center

The suspension is pretty sloppy right now, and I am sure many of the worn parts will need to be replaced before I try for an alignment. Other than that, the driveline is smooth, with one exception: As I accelerate, there is a vibration in the driveline that goes away when I hold steady speed. any ideas? Didn't notice it at first because the old tires were doing a little vibrating of their own.

That's it in a nutshell. Other than to say, of course, thanks for all of the advice!

PS I cannot stop looking at this car from every angle. Is that normal?
