Also how do you measure the front toe for a pan car?
Niftech makes a NEAT alignment tool that helps you accurately (and repeatably) set toe-in and camber. It also makes an easy-squeezy tool for centering the rear axle, etc. It takes a bit of fiddling the first couple times you use it but once you've got it figured it's a breeze to use. All for a whopping $25 and from some GREAT folks. Been using mine about a year now.

Niftech Ultra-Precision Alignment Tool

The pic below shows the tool as-used on the front of the car and shows how it is used to center the rear axle. Note that one and a half tools are shown--you "only" get two bars and one rod.
