I was thinking if i could take the arms and spindles from a chevy pickup c20 maybe. With some modifications it may fit.
I saw a pic of a -62 dynamic 88 holiday coupe with dropped spindles and disc brakes. Is it the same front susspension?

Ok. I havent done nothing to this, just copied from annother thread.
But you can just open the pic in paint and resize it there. just cut and copy.

Back to the picture comment

Jamebo and Pat
I discovered by accident that when I upload from my computer to my photobucket site I can set the size of the photo just before hitting the upload command. John
