<VV> Question for the masses

[jwcorvair at aol.com]

Hi,
When I bought my 62 sedan it was sitting okay until I pulled the giant paving stone from the trunk, then it sat with the left rear sagging down. The springs in the rear of my car appeared to be relatively new, like yours. I tried several different approaches, including new shocks, but nothing seemed to help. I finally bit the bullet and bought a complete set of heavy duty springs (front and rear) from Clarks, new KYB shocks as well. The new springs fixed the problem.

Many months ago I posted a question as to why my 63 conv sits high on the 
right rear. Today since the weather was beautiful (low 80's) I decided to delve 
into it some more. First I replaced all 4 shocks, now the car sits even on the 
drivers side but higher on the passenger side by about 11/2". The right rear 
still is jacked up. I noticed that some PO replaced rear springs, heck they 
haven't even rusted yet! Could he have gotten a mis-matched set of springs and 
just didn't know it. He is no longer among the living and the fellow I bought it 

from can't help. Sooooo.... what's next ? New, hopefully matched springs???
   Question two: same car. Is there a product that will clean a convertibles 
cloudy rear plastic window?
