Steering rack bushings are a must for the list. I know someone mentioned them earlier, but they can really make a big difference.

I'd like to see a kit made with all of the maintenance stuff like gaskets, belts, water pump, hoses, power steering pump and another kit with all of the bushings.

It's weird. Out of the 4 SC's I have owned, I've only had 1 car with a burned out climate control, saggy hinges, and blown hood and trunk shocks.

Only problems bothering me with my car is the powersteering pump, left fog doesn't work (Wire got chewed), and the cassette player doesn't work (I'm using another mod but at the moment it needs to be replaced). That's just the stuff that matters a little more than my bad paint.

I'd like this thread only I'd like it more with some links to some items that can replace these. Like
Hoses for PS autozone
Window regulators from salvaged yard. It was hard walking through a Sc graveyard. But also exciting for my loved Sc. I'm looking for steering bushing now. What's the best?

ScSlider, Where in TX did you find a SC specific graveyard? I'm in Austin...

So this list is great and all but, it would be the best if there were links to purchase some of these items?
