| Hi Konstantinos, One more option for the tie rod ends - Fred"s friend Jim has identified a tie rod end from a Toyota truck that fits our cars. I sent my drag link to him and he recently fitted the new ends. Check out the photos at: http://www.400gt.com/technical/tierods/tierod.htm It is a good way to go and very reasonable.

Overall the car is in very good shape with some "minor" things in need of replacement (front brake pads, and valve cover gaskets), which is a relief. However, he was concerened on the wear of certain items part of the steering mechanism: Center drag link and the 4 tie-rods (2 inner, 2 outer). Has anyone ever replaced these? Are they easy/hard to find? My mechanic is searching independently and I thought I should give it a try too. I left a message at GT Car Parts. Chad, Jacques? Any input is appreciated. Thank you!
