Hope you didn't feel we were making fun of you or your car. Nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, personally, I am impressed that you were smart enough to realize there were some issues like these, and coming forward to ask questions.

If we come across as dumping on your car, it is just friendly jabbing. Like we said originally, it really looks like a decent car, and we would all probably not mind owning it. Especially at the price you paid,

The few things we see, like the spindles, are intriqing to us, because of how the builder did it. Ingenious, but misguided.

Post those pix when the wheel comes off. I'm dying to see how he did the upper portion of the spindle and got the bushings to fit the proper size for the ford kingpins.
