Thank you Jim, John and the Weavers for the brake info.  I am in the middle
of distribution of the new newsletter, so copies of your responses will be
included with Mark's.  John, if you  bring that item to Carlisle, I will
copy Mark on it.

Best Regards,

Hi Jack, I have put togather a Conv. this winter. I stumbled across a
spindle that comes very close diamention wise to the 57"s with minor
modifications they can be adapted. I have used about 79 LeBaron in the past
but this is closer fit. They are off a 1976 Ford granada with 5 bolt rotor,
4 bolts were 6 cylinders. Same bolt pattern and 14" wheels will work. They
have 11" rotors. If your interested let me know and I'll go in to more
detail. Jim At 06:02 PM 06/23/2004 -0600, you wrote:

would like to update my braking system on my '57.  I know of one company
that sells a brake conversion kit to change it over to disc brakes,
however, it's quite expensive.  Has anyone else changed theirs to disc
brakes and what was the system/company or donor car used?  How effective
did you find it?, etc."
