DISCO Brakes?

ha ha ha.

Rafman - dang that vert looks sharp !

Some modern wheels seem kinda out of place on older cars to me but those look very nice

Disco brakes LMAO -- I actually survived the disco years. I had my big shoes , bell-bottems , Puffy sleeved shirts and actually got a perm once. I even used to sing along with Donna Summer

yeah Rafee that is one sweet ride, but my fav is the dark blue one

There you go! I like those wheels MUCH better!

That was a job that I did in California for a customer, wheels and disc brakes, several years back, Corvair still on the road. I know the wheels on my 64 are a little too flashy, even for me, I don't know what I was thinking, a little too much bling-bling... I like them better in my 64 Coupe. I am waiting for a new set of wheels to replace the ones in my convertible, as you know, sometimes it's hard to pick the right one, especially from a photo, I am gonna try a different set, I think it's gonna look much better, and it's going to go with the car. How about posting some more pix of your ride ? New topic: 65 wheels 17 ****disco brakes, LOL..... alright, man, peace out !

Yeah those chrome jobby's that were on the on the red vert aren't my style, but that's ok. They are someones style or they wouldn't exist.
My wheels were not my first choice but they were cheap so I got them. The first set I bought were too wide, except seeing Tony's car with those new wheels of his on I guess I could have made them work.


Those wheels..are the exact wheels I put on my wife's Scion tC.


and someday ..I'll be talking to you about getting DISCO brakes on my car too! I hear you are "the man" to talk to about them!

they do look good on earlies too!
