what rear sway bars do you guys recomend would be the best for my '65?...

 

I recommend using a rear sway bar as a tuning device.
Do you feel you need one because the car is tight (front looses grip before the rear)?

Lots of things I would do to a suspension before I added a rear sway bar, especially on a 65-66.

 

2bav8, judging by your car you can probably clear this up. I had read somewhere that on track cars they usually don't use a rear sway bar because drivers like the end to be loose and swing somewhat out of a turn. Can you clarify this thinking and how it would apply to a street cars. Thanks.

 

On a track a driver wants a balanced car. There is a certain someone on another forum that likes so spout off about 'loose' cars. Go to corver-carners.com and just start reading and you will know the answer and no longer have any doubt.

As for 'drivers like the end to be loose and swing somewhat out of a turn' strange things happen when your rear 'swings somewhat on a turn' because your rear has lost grip.

The correct term is Anti-Sway bar. For the guys who use them, the 3/4 inch seems to be the norm. If your rear is loose, and you feel you need to stiffen it up to get rid of the sway, then the anti-sway bar is designed to do that.

 

A painful image. But, perusing your site, looks like your body shop did a great job of repair.
