Does anyone make a front disc conversion kit for a 61 lesabre? Would a kit for a fullsize chevy work? How about drop spindles?
I bought my 61 already had C5 vette discs on it, I've been all over it and it looks near bolt in. I can't see where any mods have been done at all to any part, but they may have. Looks like a later model spindle bolted up to the Upper and Lower control arms. Note does have an 8" booster and MC with a prop valve now as well. Still runs original rear discs. Stops awesome. I believe it may have been done by a shop in Cleveland back in 2006 or 2007. Don't have the name of the shop but could track it down, they do air bag conversions and brake conversions on a ton of late 50's early 60's stuff
Street Machinery in Ohio. Here is their ebay page. http://stores.ebay.com/Street-Machinery-The-One-Stop-Shop IIRC, there is some minor machining necessary for the C5 brakes to work. Boris (Street Machinery) sells kits I think. Mine has the same setup.
Thanks Chris, yep that's definitely it. I count 4 x 61's in the gallery, yours and mine included plus 2 others. http://www.streetmachinery.com/gallery/cars
