    Well with my birthday around the corner i bought, excuse me, my family bought me a 64 olds f-85 with a 303 olds motor, clean in and out, their was a quarter size hole in the trunk fron the trunk seal leaking, other than thet you can eat off the floor boards. It has a extra lf fender and trunk lid to relace dented panels, but would like to find a rear bumper being it is dented beyond repair

    looks like im going cruising, once i get the brakes straightened out

    do they make a upgrade kit to convert the front from drum to disk???

    Heres some pics:

    One of my best friends in high school had a 65 Olds F-85 with a 330. It was fast and surprised a lot of Mustangs and Camaros

    Sweet!

    And yes, there are several outfits who make disc conversions for the 64-72 A-body. Try mpbrakes.
