New motor and some progress!

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.
if you look thru the pics you can see the sway bar endlinks up front are brand new so i doubt it is that. the axles looked new so prob not them wheel bearing and lca idk:shrug:
 
ok I now retract my previous statements about the car lol. the wobble was an axle so I am relieved the wheels arent hurt. Getting it lined up this coming week and going to get her this coming weekend i think. bad old gas it part of the running issues. he has been driving it and it seems to be coming around now. he said it is ballzy enough to break the tires loose under 4k rpms:cool: it is throwing some stupid codes which i hope will leave with a new proper tune. he ran out some gas put some fresh 93 and a ton of octane booster so we shall see how it goes. I'll post some new pics of her all together momentarily!
 
as my level of frustration rises less pictures get taken! Sorry, today I didn't even pull out my camera except for the pics i sent you.
