There are currently no pre-fabbed conversion kits for your car. That "could" change in the future. We'll keep you posted. In the meantime, Master Power Brakes will build you a kit. Call them. You'll need to send your spindles/backing plates/steering knuckles. It'll be expen$ive. Here is a thread about the possible new disc brakes http://www.v8buick.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=14551
Hey, your Riv's no dog! One of my best friends (I was later Best man at his wedding) used to call my car the "Skydog" because I was always fixing it. Usually while cruising to the beach, he'd say this. I'd ask if he was comfy in the saet I just fixed, or if he was getting too much sun and maybe I should put up the top I just installed, or maybe the 455 I just dropped in was too loud for him, so maybe I should slow down?:laugh:
WOW!!!!:eek2: :eek2: :eek2: I had no idea! I wonder why the ROA isn't shouting about this?!?!?! I'm sure they mentioned it in 2001, and since I don't know anyone with a Riv other than me, I didn't pay attention. But still! You'd think I'd see this in every issue of The Riview! Great find John. I stand humbly corrected. Now if we could just get them going on the 69... (could it be that they are the ones secretly in the process of doing the one for the late 60s Rivs? Hmmmm...........
