I bought my 79 X and drove it home 2 years ago. It has not run since, as I am restoring the paint, lights, interior, etc. first. I thought this would be a great project that my son and I could do and learn together, but he took absolutely no interest. Now my daughter (who gets her license in Jan '11) absolutely loves the car. She calls it her "vintage Italian sports car Georgio!" I have promised her to have it running by the time she gets her license.
I figured when I got it running, I would start looking at the suspension - sway bar, Koni's, whatever. I don't really know what the X "feels like" yet while driving.
So my question...what exactly is a Plaia Pivot? Where does it go? What does it do? Where do I get them? Are they the same as those $650 camber plates I saw at G-Force or those upper strut mounts that Mark Plaia just had produced? Can someone point me to an informational thread? Thanks for your patience while I try to figure this stuff out!!
