Guys
The reason I am asking is because in a 2000 or so circle track mag it talks about a old ct car built using the 65 galaxy spindle and a few other components also with a think link with the top bars parrallel and the bottom bar being a triangulated piece. I forget the exact name of the suspension. He is still using the car to win races even though the car was designed and built in the early 70's. I would like to learn more about that suspension because I am thinking about duplicating or modifiing to my needs on a new project. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

nascar still uses the same basic suspension today, of course it's all tubular parts but the basic design is still used. at least it was within the last few years, i haven't realy kept up with it too much lately but i seriously doubt that they changed it much other than some tweaking. son't have a bunch more to add but at least that will give you some sort of a starting point
