hi!
I have a '55 that was a barn find. I have been working at it for a number of years and have it in running condition with lots of cosmetic work remaining. I am keeping the car original so restoring and refurbishing alot.
As they stand now, the brakes are in correct operating conditions, most components being new. They just aren't all that good, at least by today's standards.
So - - has anyone reading this managed to convert to disk brakes ? If so what are some effective but economical ways to go about this? Can I keep the same tires?
While I want to keep the car original, if safety or reliability are compromised I don't mind upgrading, as in this case.
Any help appreciated!
Fred
