Project SuperNova originally had a mono leaf rear-end. The driver's side leaf was nearly flat. Clearly, I needed a Multi-Leaf setup.

I found a replacement Multi-leaf and rear-end setup from a 1976 Skylark. The front brackets and rear shackles are an exact match. I rebuilt the brakes, replace the gear lube, and painted the new rear-end and multi-leaf.

Under-side view with rear-end removed. I've got lots of cleaning to do.
