Your gonna want some rear weight biased. 45 front/ 55 rear.
Most of those cars Greg speaks of are still tri 4 bar rears with not a lot of tire. With a clean sheet suspension a lot of improments can be made. Long arm 3 link, cantillever coil overs and watts comes to mind.
Let the rear end go if he wants it. Your probably better off starting fresh. Theres a bunch to change on the current rear end housing.

I know some weight will get added back into the car. For starters, I'd put in a glass front windshield. I'd also put the guts back in the door to have working windows. A bigger fuel cell would add a little weight.
What's your thought on a rear mounted radiator?
