Confused on front suspension

First let me start by saying I am currently working on a 1950 3100. I plan to use it for a daily driver with weather permitting, so it needs to handle and ride good. The confusion comes from the front suspension. From what i have read you can either go with a mustang 2 crossmember install or a camaro type sub frame install. I am leaning more towards mustang 2 setup cause it seems to be more widely installed. The ? came up with the lower control arms, the stock setup shows having a strut bar installed, but aftermarket tubular arms have and dont have it installed. Ones without shows having a gusset welded in on the trailing side to brace the arm. My ? is do I need the strut bar or not? Also is there anything i need to be aware of when doing a mustang 2 install?
