Budd calipers -- Bendix or Cardone???

["Bar00n" <baroon@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have some pics of the Cardone on my website under the 'new' 1967 Chrysler
300 images. They look real good but I haven't mounted them to the car yet so
I can't speak for the buildquality. I got mine for $109 at the time which
was a lot better than the $142.

I have found that the local parts house can get either Bendix (1 year
warranty @ $142) or Cardone (lifetime warranty @ $113) calipers.  Logic
indicates that the Cardone are the better deal, but I believe I had several
problems with them a few years back on my 68 conv.
Can ayone share any experience with these parts suppliers and the quality of
the rebuild?

Thanks,
