After three years this month,  I was finally able to drive my 49 panel on
the road. It felt really good but problems remain.  Foremost is the fact
that the truck swayed badly when turning or correcting the steering path.
I have the stock axle with power disk brakes and power steering from a 72
chevy truck.  The rear is from a '74 Nova.

I have re-read the archives about sway bars and it seems to be a consenus
from the earlier discussions that sway bars make dramtic improvments in
handling.  I would just like to confirm that before deciding to shell out
$370 for front and rear bars (Brothers).  Classic Performance Products has
them for a little less.

Any thoughts?

Thanks
