Chris Reed Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 I am trying to restore a 66 Wildcat with my nephew. I cant seem to find tubular front control arms, drop spindles, and disc brake conversion, floor pans, trunk pan for this car. I was told any B-body GM would share the same suspension parts but I ordered upper and lower control arms for a 66 impala and they aren't even close. Any leads on where to find this stuff or an accurate interchange? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are modifications. You might get good/accurate information further down the page under Buick - Modified. Good luck in your search. Pictures of the car are always appreciated by the members and visitors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RivNut Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 If you wantbto buy off the shelf resto-mod parts, you should not have bought a Buick. You could do as the 'derelict' guys do and put a new Art Morrison frame under the body. Scarebird makes some brackets for adapting OE disks parts to some chassis. Dropped spindles? I think the last I heard of them was for use on cars with king pins. Want to lower it? - air bags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
