Sorry about the upside down photos. Not sure what caused that. Click on them and they flip.
Are the rear springs stock?

Posted: Tue Oct 03, 2023 4:41 pmThanks Richard. Are there special bushings for the sway bar links or can I just install any bushings that will fit?
Re: New member: 66 327 Crown Car
Posted: Tue Oct 03, 2023 5:24 pmFound the bushings. Just stock rubber or poly GM. From all the crumbled pieces it looks like they were blue poly.

Looks like you found a nice Crown car stored away. Glad to see that you have plans to put it back on the road. There are probably many more to be found. Ted Trevor sold a lot of kits and they are somewhere. Best wishes

Crown Car shocks and master cylinder recommendations please
Posted: Fri Nov 10, 2023 11:21 amWhat shocks do you recommend for the Crown car? I can see that the bushings are shot on mine.
And, I want to replace the 60s truck brake/clutch master with a Vair dual brake master (staying w drum brakes for now) and a separate master for clutch. Is there space to mount both and what master is recommended for the clutch?
