Just a heads up. I bought an ajustable panhard bar for my 64 and it was the best 150 dollars i have spent. For obvious reasons, it gives you the ajustability to move the rearend for wheel/tire clearence. Makes fitting 20's on the rear much easier. My 2 cents

59-64. My 58 has a wishbone upper and no panhard. But it is just a cruiser, not a bruiser! Lol
Thanks for the info tho!

Just so happens that we had a 58 in here a few years back and we made tubular upper wishbone for it. The lowers are the same as the 59-64....

Darren, I'd love to have some of "your stuff" under my wagon....but I robbed the bank this year for both cars. Cage, tank, trans, driveshaft and head work on the 69. Rebuilt 348 in the wagon.
Ouch! Too much at once! Lol
