They weren't as effective as later developments, but they sure look cool hanging down under there.

Yeah, just thinking I can use the old design with new technology to get the right look and perhaps improve on their performance.... Got to have the long bars, for sure!!!! A modern 4 bar would certainly work better, but it'd be like putting a dress on a pig---it'd still look like a pig!!!!!

I really like the set in your picture with the wheelie bars built into the same bracketry, think I'll probably end up with something quite similar---THANKS!!!
