A question on the New old Original made last week Cheetah What suspension is under these super cars? The old Vette crap?

Its a 90 inch wheelbase and the front suspension consisted 1962 Cheavy HD spindles using tubular control arms connected to the chassis with Heim joints and special Monroe coil over shocks. Rear suspension was a modified Corvette IRS (using a special aluminum Posi unit) located using trailing arms., same shocks and drum brakes all around. Another unique point to the Cheetah was that it did not use a driveshaft. The engine (Chevy 327 FI) was mounted so far back the differental bolted right to the tranny with one universal joint. 27 cars were built in total, two aluminum and the rest in 'glass, before the factory burned to the ground and ended production.
