Re: disc brake conversion

I am been scouring the internet. Is there a place for me to purchase 15" conversion kits for disc brakes for my 1965 Corsa?

Re: Vinyl Floors?

I am planning on putting por 15 down, then lizardskin sound, lastly lizardskin ceramic on the bare floor. With the Tahoe, we put down dynamat before we put the vinyl down. I will have to reach out to the vendor that made the molded floor for my Tahoe and see what they can do for me.

I am so excited to get this car done before she turns 50. I'm still torn between Aztec Gold and Ginger Tan for the new color. I need that Pow! The o :tu: ld owner wants on to go Evening Orchid. I am going to go front disk brake, just because I am in over congested NJ and so need that stopping power.
