Rear suspension options for '62???

Does anybody have any success stories or ideas for the rear suspension on a '62 SWB. I like the idea of 4 link, but there doesn't seem to be much available without major fab (or so it seems). I want it dropped, but laying frame isn't my main concern. I'd like a low, mean stance that handles well. Planning for bags all around, either a Porterbuilt Dropmember (once he has one available for '62's) or a doner sub frame up front, probably with strong arms. But i'm stuck on the back end. I would prefer a tringulated 4 link to eliminate a panhard bar or watts link (much cleaner look, IMHO), but is it possible? Also, an somebody explain the difference in frames from 60-62 and 67-on. Pics or build threads would be HUGELY appreciated.
