    Look at 4:56, very obvious that the front brakes are disc and caliper.

    This Hotrod was running right into 70, 71 with some obvious upgrades...As mentioned it was a blessing more wasn't done in the modernization process as well. @Kid Rocker has every intention of this being methodically brought back to it's earlier routes. It's always best to read the whole Thread as you will pick up these details as they were discussed...see the post at link below...

    Even I was gonna ask about the rear Custom Bumper and went back and there it was...so it really helps to read from the beginning...and perhaps you did but missed it...As I said Kid deserves this BIGTIME.

    I remember this Thread coming up earlier last year and its really been an inspiring read.
