So as a few of you already know, I'm a new owner of a Cutlass and I am having a few issues with my car. The car sat for about 2yrs and wasn't driven very much prior to that point (67k) an older woman drove it and has only been in the ownership of 2 other people other than myself . The car has a rear suspension issue, I really don't know much about these cars but from what I was told it needs a spring in the rear, and I was wondering if there was a place I could find aftermarket springs maybe some that would give me a slight drop? Also how difficult is it to do suspension work on our cars , and what types of improvements could i do that would be cheap but also efficient? Also my trans shifts great in every gear but Reverse, I was told that it could be something that is dirty within the trans but I can't remember the name of the said part, but it's supposedly some solenoid or something of that nature . I'm really just looking to fix it and make it my project car that I will grow with over time rather then dump money into it when I'm still learning about a car this old .
So any and all information would be greatly appreciated, both with what I have listed and to fix those said issues, or even stuff that I could do to improve my car on a budget .
Thanks for the help in advanced .
