best budget suspension set up?
I'm building a '35 Ford. Basically all chevy...I'm using a '97 Camaro SS parts car for the rear end at least. The '35 now has mis matched leaf springs, '58 Impala rear end and stock front suspension.
What would be the best route to go for a cheap budget suspension? A new set of leaf springs with the camaro rear (shorten axles i suppose). Or should I fab up the coil overs on the front and rear? What would be the best cheap front suspension...buying a complete unit or paying someone to piece one together? I have little knowledge of suspensions so the work will likely not be done by me which is even more reason to keep it simple to avoid labor costs.
Again I'm going for cheap as the car will just be a weekend cruiser on a budget.
Any input is appreciated...thanks'35 Ford coupe- LT1/T56, '32 Ford pickup, 70 GTO convertible, 06 GTO

Well I've sure gotten old too so don't worry about it! I've had two bypass surgeries, new knees, fought prostate, cancer and diabetes. I'm half blind, can't hear anything quieter than a jet engine,...
