Read about it in a post somewhere recently, now can't find the source and can't remember the name. Appreciate any leads.

After discovering the shortfalls with the rear suspension and looking for upgrades, I discovered this. It seems to be so much easier than adapting a C4 like some folks have done. Just wondering about feedback from anyone that's tried it. 6-Link Rear Suspension (article about the original...

Bought a decent running 81 several years ago, THEN found out the unique problems that can occur in the rear suspension and hubs/brakes. Yup, I've got em! I mean the problems. I work away from home most of the time so the car has been sitting since I discovered that. Now, however, I'm doing...

I'm finally getting around to finishing my plans for a mild upgrade on my 81 I bought a few years ago in preparation for some trips after I retire. I'm working on a mild upgrade that will yield better throttle response but also good mpg's preferably on 87 so I can afford those trips. The big...
