    It has a 4 inch dropped axle in the front with split wishbones. The rear is a transverse spring with P&J ladder bars. That is going to get redone with 36 rear wishbones.

    I'm planning a little get together for traditional hotrods and customs fairly soon. Any interest in driving to Tucson?

    The thing I dig about it is the "orchard posts" Those are the right stanchions for a hotrod and you have them laid back properly as they should be. Can't wait to check out this beauty.
