Thanks Charlie
I always liked a challenge LOL This one is of my own making though LOL I wanted to get rid of the rather small rear drum brakes. To go with disc all arround. Well one thing lead to another (don't they always?) I was converting from the inner U-joints to CVs. The friend who's doing my machine work. Just happened to have a pair of CV joint drilled discs from a formula Ford (I think). So rather than trying to find a disc set up that would work with the rear uprights & bearings etc. It just seemed to make sense to use them & reduce the sprung weight at the wheels. Besides the discs were free so HEYYYYYYYYYY? We're trading work he's doing the machine work in trade for all the fiberglass work I did on his Devin. Helped make the mold (body), made the molds & parts for doors & headrests etc. I happened to have an extra pair of front calipers on my shelf (I'd tried a pair of Fiat X19s but didn't like the clearances.) Yeah I will on the electrical. Probably something like a "painless" loom. Not be a victim of the Dark Lords Lucas or Smith LOL I do have the whole harness I took out in toto. Looks like a pile of colored spageti over in the corner of the garage LOL (actually on top of the race engine crate for my 850 spider).
