The rear leaf springs have 1" or 2" drop brackets on them, not original. As for the traction bars, there were some factory setups, but I'm not sure whether yours is or not.

I have some concerns about it being a GT. check this website for some tips. I can't say it's 100% accurate, but it saves me a bunch of typing.

The spring shackles and traction bars are not original. Pretty bad rust on the right rear quarter, can't tell elsewhere. If its not a GT, it's a pretty neat little car anyway. But, it looks like you would have a lot a bodywork to fix rust.

What area are you in? Others will be able to chime in with price estimates.
