I am wondering why TF right now! I can only imagine how pissed off Ob1 is right now. Hoping it is just the old gas in the car for the main issue and im praying the wobble issue is just balancing of the tires or the tires flat spotted from sitting on concrete in one spot for so long. Might be lca bushings who knows. I'll never buy a non running car again unless it is bone stock!
 
sorry to hear the bad news. I'd check the tires once over for bulges, that might cause the wobble. ex g/f had a tremendous wobble in her t-bird cause by a tire bulge. If thats not it i'd say lca's, sway bar links, or maybe even wheel bearing.
