My first car was a '69 Volvo station wagon, and it got me where I needed to go. 
 I called it the silver bullet and had some pretty amazing times in the back 
through high school.  You go Dennis!

I have had a question and project that has raised a discussion and I'll throw 
it out here. 
  
I used to have Volvo station wagons and twice I put aftermarket sway bars on 
them. It improved them a bunch. So now I am considering a swaybar for my '63 
bus to reduce the rocking in turns. 
  
Only the '67 had a swaybar from the factory. I can put a bar from the '67 if I 
grind off some of the metal on the connecting rod so that it will accept both 
the bar's clamp and the shock absorber.  
  
Is it worth it? Will it greatly stabilize the rocking?  
  
I don't want this to sound like Chuck's Megasquirt or anything that Brian comes 
up with, it sounds simple, is it?
