First, sharp looking car. 30+ years ago my best friends father had one, appliance white, factory AC, 318. Needed a fuel pump. He literally couldn't give that car away. He tried for years to get a hundred bucks for it. No rust, not beat up either. Finally sold it to the junkyard. I went there to grab a part one day a few weeks later and they'd managed to demolish the left quarter panel

I'd cross my fingers and start with bushings. Even some white grease might help. I have dim memories of having to replace the bushings on my 87 Dakota which very likely wasn't much different in design.

I'll leave with this: when I was a kid there was an old man with a '72 or so Dodge pickup. You would always see it parked along the side of the road, empty. Well, my grandfather knew him and explained: reverse had gone out on the transmission and rather than have it fixed he just always parked where he didn't have to back up!
