Last time I saw him he was doing well and had the car in hibernation until his kids finished college.

Very nice guy and glad to hear all is well. I was thinking about that car the other day. I was kinda sad to see it got ladder bars, but it's still a BAD ride.

Did they go straight from the leafsprings to the 4 link? Seems like I remember it having ladder bars under it, but that was a long time ago. I just always liked seeing that car torqueing up on those old SS springs.

As far as I know yes, 4 link right off the bat, and Fred was ready to toss the 4 link and reinstall the leafs IIRC. Herb McCandless had a big role in making that car work on the motor/leaf combo. It was tested a LOT.
