Default ANOTHER sway bar thread..

I have read many threads on sway bars on C3s. I just want to confirm, '68-'72 with small blocks had factory anti-sway (roll) bars in the front, however did not come stock in the rear correct? And BB and super up suspension cars came with them stock in the rear.....

yes, but it was common for an owner to add the rear swaybar also so cannot be used as a definitive determination of an original big block car.

The early ‘69 SB cars did not have holes in the trailing arms for sway bar mounting. My car is a January ‘69. Build which I have owned for over 44 yrs, the cars original T/A’s did not have these holes. Possibly someone with more knowledge of the subject will chime in!

All C3s had stock front sways bars regardless of engine displacement.
