Default 1968 build thread

Someone close to me has some 71 chevelle discs, calipers, pads, rotors and brake lines for $60. Will these work for my front disc conversion? Is it a good deal?http://images.craigslist.org/00t0t_l...3Z_600x450.jpg

Need the spindles if you have drum brakes or you have to modify the old spindles. $60 is a very good deal

Great buy if you got that for $60. Around here that's between $200 to $250 for that set up.

Anybody ever turned their car on its side to do underbody work? I've seen some mattress and old tire methods on the web.

I used a lift. I don't think I would be laying weight on the side of the car. I think buy some real big jack stands and use a creeper.
