These cars just screamed, "Thrash me!" back in the day, and many were. They slid off roads, hit curbs and every other nasty thing you can't imagine. Not only is the chassis a bit on the delicate side of light, the a-arms are designed to fold to cushion that chassis from any blows, and the uprights are weak right where the steering arm passes though. Add 60 years of this and there is a very good chance you have bent parts in your front end. All this to say, get it checked on an alignment rack, at least the first time. And every time after any kind of "incident".
The front end is not adjustable except for toe. That means if your castor or camber is off, something is either bent or worn. If your KPI or included-angle is off then your uprights/spindles are bent.
Lastly, your thrust angle will tell you if the rear wheels are pointing in the same direction as your fronts, a useful thing to know!
