My stock '87 had a thicker swaybar than a 2.5 Milano, so if some Verdes had
larger swaybars and others didn't it wasn't a firm switchover that happened
during the production run.

My current '87 Verde has a Shankle bar, which is thicker then the stock bar
on my other Verde (although I haven't measured it so I can't give exact
dimensions).

Fwiw,
