Technical Stu hilborn streamliner

Hey guys just a shot in the dark...
I am obsessed with the Stu Hilborn streamliner and I have collected a lot of pics threw the internet but I still have one question...
does anyone have any pics or know of how the front and rear axle are mounted? I have seen some pics of it in progress and they look like they have tabs welded to them then bolted straight to the frame??
Then in some of the finished pics it looks like they left room for the axle to move in the body just enough for some sort of suspension...
thanks in advance for any info!

 

ok i kept doing a little more digging and i found this article that says yes he welded the axles rite to the frame... i think the axles have tabs and are bolted to the frame...

Damn quick, I was posting that link with article

 

and it looks like the first version that was wrecked had a rear spring..

 

Thanks for pics - link - friend bought a Hilborn set up for his flathead at the Turlock, CA Swap Meet last weekend for Bonneville car he is building now

 

Check with Jim Latten (San Diego) I believe he has the repo one in his collection...

 

One of the sexiest race cars ever
