handling problems

My brother and I are into rods, his a 31 chev with corvette drivetrain, and mine a 47 plymouth coupe ,chev drivetrain and ford 9" rear. The 31 was completed when he bought it at a drug sezieure auction, but had been wrecked and needed complete front clip. Now it's finished, but has serious handling problem. Car has corvette rear, installed nicely and professionly alighned, but when you hit a pothole at speed (over 50 or so) it has serious body roll. WE tries coil-overs on the shocks and helped some, but something isn't right. Anybody got any experience with this rear of suggestions? Thanks, stripnut

handling problems

Car doesn't have sway bar, but looks exactly like factory setup on my brothers 71 corvette. Sorry, but I don't have pictures. I went by local race shop today and fabricators suggested a track bar setup.....they think the center section may be moving.
