Nice. Reminds us of what is truly important in life!

OK guys, considering converting the front drum brakes on my '66 Mustang to disc. Yeah I know this a 71-73 site, but I also know some of you converted your 71-73 cars over as well. Looking for info on the kits out there today. Which ones are the best.? How did the installation go? Did you do...

Is any one going to the 60th anniversary in Birmingham in April? Taking a car?

Did manager to remove the rusted tube. Drove a awl between the o.d. of the tube and the engine block. The tube was so rusted that the top half sticking out of the block came off but the bottom half still stuck in the block. Used a small cold chisel to break the tube wall then took needle nose...

Secluff, Thank you for the info. One question, after you get the old tube out, do you put any sealant on the new one before you insert back into the block?

No complaints here, Santa was kind to my Mach. A brand new set of KYB shocks were under the tree for it. :)

Suggest maybe applying a coat of wax to floor/wheel well where tire rubs against. Also light coat of oil on tire itself. Myself, my spare does not squeak.

Thanks for the pic. I will pass on the seal. Mac
