Nova advice please!

[ssdeuce]

I am going to build a PT 69 Nova. The body is rusted badly. Especially the rear unibody so I know for sure that I want to have a custom full frame built. But here is where I need your expert advice. What would be the best well rounded rearend set up? 4 link, truck arm, leaf spring, etc? This car will see mostly street and some open track days. I also would like to do some open road racing someday. Thanks!

As far as full frames go, check with Art or Craig Morrison, they probably have something. Also check with Jeff at http://www.schwartzperformance.com/
He is building frames now, but I am not sure if he has a Nova prototype yet.
DSE has a rear suspension set upand minitubs that will fit novas too.

Honestly a good set of leaf springs would work nice. But if you want to go full custom frame I say the DSE 4 link would be sweet.

But like I would defintly check out Art or Craig Morrison they make some nice stuff.

The thing about the leaf springs on my car is where they mount on the car is rusted badly. You can break off rust easily on that part of the unibody. This is why I think a full frame would be best in my case. Thanks for the advice keep it coming.
