Thanks for the greetings
I have been checking into front disc brake conversion kits ($500-$600) as you said...That will be a nice change from the drums for sure.
I got the green light from my wife to get the car painted ASAP...she's a cool wife and is aware of my passion for cars...I found a shop that has done several Chevelles recently and we worked out a very fair deal to smooth & paint the panels in the burnt orange color with black SS stripes + clearcoat.
Flash - I just recently sold my 1972 Monte Carlo which was painted
Orange Flame Metallic - a very rare color on an A-Body car. Looked great in the sun
