Does this Diplomat front end have opposed torsion bars? A friend of mine is bulding a '50 Dodge truck and has an Imperial parts car he's using for engine/trans/front suspension. It has disks/rack and pinion/independant front with the torsion bars opposed and it looks like a real sweet little package to do a swap with.

The Diplomat front suspension was carried over from the Volare, so it will have the same pros and cons.
