    IF you decide to use OEM large calipers in a rebuilt form - I can send you a pair of used A1 Cordone rebuilts with some used Hawk HPS pads if you can use them.

      Thanks Alan I'll keep that in mind although that company you suggested uses new calipers, but I'm still pondering a little but I want to order within a week so I'll have it waiting when I get it back from my body man.

            I'm hoping he's starting on it this weekend or next week, he had a few things in front of it. I asked him to take some pictures for me. I'm going up there next weekend so hopefully he'll have tore into it by then.
            Cool Andy can't wait to see what you're up to, you always have good idea's.

              Here you go Perry it works great. You have to run a hot wire off the brake switch back to the trunk area to plug it up and then just ground it. I made a wood spacer that is 2"x 16" x 1" to get it up high enough so you will see it. I painted mine to match the blue of the interior but they come black so you really don't even need to paint it.

                  Me too!! I texted him yesterday just to make him think about me. Sure do need to get it back to start upgrading the front end and check for all the stuff that Murphy has hidden for me. The clock is ticking!

                      Well it's been several months but we finally have some progress! Just hope it continues. Oh and Robert has given the Impala the name " Iron Maiden ".
