Rear suspension: reworked or modified.

At last I have come even here, with my idea about '59 Caddy turned in to Road Warrior. OK, now I have two different opinions about its rear suspension.
First: for aggressive high-speed road race stock suspension ABSOLUTELY unsuitable, and needed to rework it completely.
Second:Stock end with stiffened up coils and springs and heavy-duty sway bar can work.
So?

So what...

Are you asking what some of us would do? Cuz if it was mine I'd bag it, paint it flat black, do some really nice tribal flames, and just drive it slow n easy, enjoying the looks on my fellow rodders faces.
