Redhawk,

Thanks for the update.

On the rear, I was thinking of just adding QA1 coil over spring setup, removing factory "Chevette" springs and adjuster plates but keeping the 4 Link and converting to new Upper and lower QA1 link arms. Their upper arms allow pinion angle adjustment and their lower arms are boxed and far beefier than the stock ford units but still have provisions for mounting the rear Sway Bar.

Keep the pics coming, your input has been invaluable in helping me determine how far I'm going to go with my rebuild.

Can you please let me know what you ordered for the front swaybar and how it works out and mounts?

I may even start a new thread "Rebirth of a Classic Roadster 1", as I've spent the last few days finalizing removal of the body, building a roller buck to hold the body properly so it doesn't sag during the rebuild, and most of my time just pressure washing and degreasing 26 years and 28,000 miles of road grime and grease from the chassis and body underside.
