C1: Alignment specs

[Rob M.]

I forgot my ST-12 at our workshop but I'll get my '59-er aligned tomorrow. Does anyone has the camber and other wheel alignment settings at hand so I can pass them to my garage to get everything just right?

thanks,
Rob.

From my notes for my `62,\.

Assuming (which one should never do) all is well with the front end. Set the toe-in at 0 to 1/16th and the caster to the maximum. Caster should not affect tire wear but this setting is better suited to radials.
