Well...... I don't like the ride (sorry Bret) it's on air ride.... and I'm not a fan...
Stock chassis.... Tubular upper A arms stock lowers - nothing special. Triangulated 4 bar rear - Ford 9"... Art wasn't even thinking about building Tri Five chassis when this project was being done.
Took Pierre 10 YEARS to complete the car -- and it's been done for maybe 7 or 8 years IIRC. Not many miles on the car -- maybe 5,000 and only short distances.
It's why I ride him about driving the '57 === once he get's in that C6 suspension Ironworks chassis -- on coil overs -- LS power -- The '56 will be permanently parked.
