One of the brake backing plates is toast on my sixty
(plus the brakes on that side have been behaving badly
for some time)and I am thinking of setting the
original equipment aside and slapping on the front
brakes of a 66 (which will be close to free and much
less elaborate to adjust). Does anyone know how
complicated this would or would not be? I am hoping
to leave the spindles and such and just swap from the
plates on. Although I could go the whole way if need
be.
Also does anyone know anything about collector plates
in MN. I asked about them at the DMV today and about
all they could tell me is that the car should be
"driven in a way that is consistent with it's
collector car status." Which they were unable to
define or explain further. I drive Virgil only in the
summer and I don't drive to work. However, I do park
the Chivvy altogether and just use Virgil for what
little driving I do (shopping, going out, and the
occasional trip) from about April through Oct. Would
I be fudging the law? and if so has anybody ever
gotten a ticket for this?
