    Does anyone know what it takes to convert a '67 Wildcat to front disc brakes? I have a '76 and a '74 Electra, will any of the parts from them fit?

    Other than the optional (rare) disc brakes at the time, I've not seen anything that would work form makes other than Electra, maybe Riv.

    www.scarebird.com makes adaptation hardware allowing you to use readily available parts. I think a few members have tried their product with good results. A search here for "scarebird" should turn something up.

    Personally for all my street driving the factory drums are superb. For the track, I just take the last exit like the big dogs. :cool:

    Thanks for the info. I'm looking into different ideas for not just the brakes. but the front and rear suspension. I may even swap a different frame under it before it's over with. I want to see how fast I can make one go and still drive it on the street. For that I want the brakes to match the speed and weight!
