Cameron 77C3:
I'll lay odds it was the spring link bolt/cup/rubbers that let go.  This is the single bolt that connect the transverse spring to the trailing arm.

Let us know
Thanks

Sometimes when I'm cornering like evil Knevil and hear the Vette flex like a coke can being crushed the thought enters my mind that it is a 31 years old vehicle...

Interested to know (as is everyone else) so I can have a look.

smokem:
maybe not meant to have C3's in S.A. . its a omen .  ;39

nifty:
"the bolt from chassis to spring pulled through the chassis bush and washer and chassis"
