After hearing his car in the lot at the photoshoot, I wouldn't be surprised if it already HAS polyurethane bushings - they usually squeak like that.
For street-driven vehicles, I'd recommend quality rubber bushings (Moog brand) on the parts that move up and down (like the upper/lower control arms) and poly on the swaybar endlinks and mounts.

Suspension work is fun.  I'm gonna do the frontend on my daily driver '87 SS sometime in the near future. She's getting fresh upper/lower A-arms with new balljoints and bushings, 640 lb/in. springs, KYB Monomax shocks, and new steering linkage. Just need to buy the shocks and springs, I have everything else already.
Let me know if you need a hand!
