(

(Preview)
Are the rear lower control arms the same on a 65 as a 67? Reason I ask, is I'd like to detail and put 4 arms together pre conversion for a 12 bolt. I'd like to do a 12 4 arm to replace the weak and worn 10 bolt 3 leg (and both are loose!!) I have a pair of nice 67's lowers from our good member Cliff already. And have...

Corvette rotors on 69-70 Canadian full size Pontiacs. A few years back, upon starting my chassis restoration, I had decided that my 69' Parisienne would need disc brakes in place of drums on the front. A little more performace would demand that braking be increased as well. Remeberi...

I've heard some theory that it's was for wagons to help the rear sit higher? But then had it discounted with other talk that a wagon came on the bottom hole. Better traction on the...
