<VV> ok whats wrong with my car ?

[Matt Nall]

Normal problem after 40 years... especially if it had a fat driver....ggggg

Look for Spring Stabilizers..BUT they are too big for our Vair coils...

Go to Walmart and buy 2  of their Rubber sanding blocks......

Hacksaw with coarse teeth works best.......cut off the ends at the slit

Make 2  medium sized  "H's" like the Mr. gasket ones you most likely looked 
at online..from this large center piece

then take the nails out of the rubber ends....  you can make 4  SMALL  "H's" 
out of these... cut the H  slots with a large course roundfile...easy!

Jack up the side of the car......insert the mediums in the bottom of the 
rear coil and drive then towards the bottom as far as easily possible...

Same up front , but use all 8....paired together...

This will  make the car level...with or without you in the drivers 
seat......take about 1 hour to do it all..

Sorry no pictures.......everyone laughs at this......

i have the 65 corvair 110 , cp.  on the drivers side its 24 1/4 Inch from 
the fender to the ground , and on the other side its 25 1/4 , and my drivers 
side wheel looks to be tipped in at the top and out at the bottom , i 
checked the wheel bearings and there good , when i jack up the drivers side 
, the wheel seams to go strate, but not much play in the bearing , is it a 
weak spring , if so how is the best way to change it , or what should i look 
for , the car drives just fine , but dont look right .Thanks Frank From near
