    Front brakes, in question.

    What's available out there?
    What later G.M. donors will work, and still keep the big bolt pattern?

    What have you used, for a conversion, on this era big Buick?

    I know you're watchin', Scarebird!!!!

    What year car? I'm pretty sure that full size spindles interchanged from 1965-70, which opens you up to a factory setup.

    1965-70 full size Buick have the same spindle ex. 65 Riv.

    Being rear steer your options in donors are nonexistent to my knowledge. We do offer a bolt up setup, and it fits inside the stock wheels.

  7. I Am a Little slow on the "UPTAKE" on this matter, If this is true then can't I just use a disc brake system from a Later model Wildcat/LeSabre? Also don't I need to go too a dual Resevoir? Due to the fact that the Disc system use more fluid? I have bought the brackets but as of yet I am not that far along in my resto yet. Tanks for any help in this matter in advance.

    So I want to get my CatProject going again!!!!!!
