wanted: rear spring perches and arm mounts

I am thinking about changing my 1970 camaro from leaf spring to coil spring. So I would like to get the spring mounts off of the rear frame and the arm mounts from a 3rd gen. If anyone has a car that needs to go to the scrap yard that I could cut this off let me know. Let me know how much you want also.

I'll also look to get this from a junkyard.

I'll be changing all drivetrain and harness and suspension from my firebird to the 70. Thinking about doing a 3rd gen dash/console setup but I'll have to find a Camaro dash as I can't put a firebird dash in it. Just ain't right. Using 3rd gen steering.

Body will be available later hopefully as a roller.

I've got just what you want from the '92 I'm parting out.
Come and get what you need and I'll give you a price you'll like.

BTW, I have a neighbor who is looking for a roller to build up as a race car.

Re: wanted: rear spring perches and arm mounts

When I get thru it may be just what he wants. If I ever get thru...

It will be missing most everything though. But most race cars are missing everything factory.

Back from N.O. last night and am sick with something. It may be next weekend before I can get over there. Do I need to bring a cutting torch? Saws-all? spot weld cutters? jacks? Dynamite?

It's on a lift, but I don't have any good cutting implements. I do have air pressure.

I have a cutting torch.

The firebird I have is a t-top. Most want hard top for racing.

I may be for a couple of hours, early evening, but I can't say for sure yet.

Tomorrow is probably better.
