Front uprights
would these be any good for a build they can still be bought now and can be had for disks or drums and in most stud patterns
And to show how they can be used. Top ball joint has adjustment for camber
Another one using the same uprights

From the look of the uprights, and moreso the balljoints, those are usa sourced Mustang 2 uprights.
Available in many flavours from many people. Buy a US hotrod magazine, and you'll find heaps of advertisers selling them.

Doesn't it depend on the geometry as to whether they are suitable in a 7 type car?
Also, why are you being a bit cagey with what they are? Have you just bought a container load you want to sell on?

any upright can be use but will require the geometry caculating and suitable wishbones developing or pick up locations on the chasis to be altered.
also the hub will require consideration ie can you get the same stud pattern for the rears you dont want 4 stud rears and 5 stud fronts or a or
different PCD
Life is like a bowl of fruit, funny how all the weird looking ones are left alone

Thing is I have mentioned these before and they were dismissed with out a comment so thought Id try again. Did wonder if it’s because they are from a
VW beetle

Interesting use of ball joints as the inner pivot for the wishbones on this setup. Makes it adjustable and although heavier than rod ends it could be
cheaper and more durable.

Hub’s can be had for disks or drums and in most stud patterns or undrilled
