Actually for not much more work you can align it yourself and NOT take it to the "professionals" who have suffered derision over the years, here, because they don't understand these old girls nor the difference between original specs and "radial" specs
Need a driveway alignment advice after suspension overhaul- just good enough to get it to the shop?
WHAT YOU NEED
1...A flat level surface, garage floor, etc. I don't have this, I block up my trailer level and use it for a rack
2....Front tire turning plates. google. Many ways to do, including greased sheet metal or salt between them.
3....an accurate angular tilt indicator, and you can buy these many places now. You need to attach this accurately to the front hub or front wheel and use it to set camber (in/ out tilt) and caster, which is figured, easy math, from two camber readings
4....A way to set toe. Crackedback on here has suggested nothing more than soda cans jacking up a pair of 2x4's layed across the tire so they are near spindle level, so you can measure across the car, front to back of the boards. Toe is simply the difference between front and rear of the tires, of course front is less
You set ride height first, caster/ camber together, and often you have to diddle them. You want the spindle tilted BACK at the front, so you want the upper A arm adjustments pushing the front of the arm OUT, and the rear IN. Diddle it to get best compromise between caster and camber
Use the "skosh chart" in the All-par article "turn of the screw"

My old Ammco caster camber gauge. A camber gauge does not actually MEASURE caster. They measure the tilt, which is camber and it is essentially a circular slide rule which calculates caster from two angular tire readings. IT IS SIMPLE

If you want to buy a "real" caster camber gauge, google Longacre. They are decent, I'm told. Or look for a used one locally on C/L etc
My modified ebay one man toe gage. You mark the tires by rotating against a scratch device, which marks them and generates a plane Essentially it is just a bar with two adjustable nails so you can "one man" measure accurately
