Rear Wheel Fitment w/ Spacers

that whole reply was meant to be tongue in cheek
I know not every one likes the 70s look

It currently has the good ol' long hangers and spring helpers (that the previous owner installed because the springs are shot) so its sitting high in the rear as it is. Its funny, I found a mound of paperwork to back up all the work he did, $2200 in new front end parts and hundreds more in other stuff around the car but he skimped on the entire rear. I know this isn't safe so springs come with the new rear when that happens. I found an A-body 8 1/4 out of a 76 slant 6/904 car in my local wrecking yard but they want almost $400 for it (seems high?) and I am fairly sure I have to pick up the drive shaft too. If the springs are good I may see if they will make me a deal for the whole enchilada
