There's a seller on ebay under the name scarebird. I think they have front (and now rear) disc brackets that allow the use of more modern components, heard good things about them. You might try a search here with the word "scarebird" to turn up more info. Devon
Wade- Send Yardley a PM. He bought the brackets from Scarebird and I was talking to him yesterday as he was leaving NAPA with all of the over the counter parts for the conversion. I think he was somewhere around $525 for all parts.
That sure sounds hard to beat, price-wise...that and knowing you can hit just about any parts store for replacement stuff! Got me thinking, too! Devon
B Body Disc Brakes Wade - I have a number of pieces in this setup, some duplicated. It has been beastly hard to find all the parts. The small parts like brackets always seem to get ignored. It is easier to use the 70 setup with the later model rotors and single piston calipers. The spindles are the same. The 67-69 calipers are still available, but pads do not seem to be and neither are rotors. I have some other info on these rotors, if you want. There are all kinds of 70 parts available - pads, rotors, calipers. Good luck. Gordon
