1964 Nova Wagon “Plank”

Nova
Im so fuking deep into JUST the alignment it hurts. Last time I had to rent a trailer to pick it up. This trailer rental. Helped my neighbor with gas money cause he towed it the first time.

Plus paying the last shop to butcher everything.

I've gone nowhere and already have spent $305 into the ATTEMPT to get it aligned. This does not include the current shops fee.

So tired of people. I'm glad my blazer was easy to align myself. Straight axles FTW! Ugh
Swap the front end?
 
I priced out what it would cost to replace all the factory balljoints, tierods, arm & strut rod bushings and came to about $305 if I remembered.

So I waited for someone to upgrade their upgrade in hopes it would work out. Front disc and 2 pot MC was a nice upgrade, just noticing that when I loaded the trailer.
 
Well, just got the call.
Shop spoke to CPP tech support and they said I have "too heavy a spring rate" in the car because the lower control arm should be flat.

Thats what the shop is going with. Nothing has been done and now I have to pick it up before work somehow.

If I have swap springs and then change my spindle back to stock height, Plank will sit. No BB. I can't afford this shit and already tried against my better judgement.
