I have spindles, Bendix calipers and rotors from my 69 GTX. Also a couple sets of brake pads. The calipers would need work for sure.

Don't want to appear to be talking to myself here BUT.....the correct answer is 'switch the caliper adapters from right side:walk: to left and the hose length won't be an issue'.

I stayed away from the leaky, expensive original disc brake set up my car came with and started converting to the 74 Cuda disc brake /spindle setup. On assembly it seems the front rubber brake lines are too short for comfort, especially in a long suspension movement situation. New rubber lines...

I have the original lower trim piece along with a new trim kit. The original has staples (3) that go thru the package tray to hold it in place, must push up tight to the glass. Otherwise I would use a bit of urethane to attach it to the package tray.

Hey, that's good news...makes life easier. Thanks a heap for the info, once again FBBO saves the day.

I need a rear window seal for my GTX - didn't see one on fleabay or Yearone or Classic. Are they reproduced for 68-70 or do I need to dig around the used parts stores?

Thanks a heap, got it going.:headbang:. I used the plug welded holes for the trim to establish the molding line. Awesome take apart/detailing pics on your car, wouldn't even want to guess the hours. Good job.

Thanks hugely, bro: one minor problem - since I decided to build the car without the horizontal trim and welded the holes up, I don't have that reference point anymore. No panic though, I appreciate what you've done. If you were able to measure from the top of the T in GTX up to the window sill...

Ola. Any news on the emblem measurements?

Got the one in the trunk.

Don't mind the wait, just want to drill the holes before final polish. I'm sure my rad support has been changed - does your car have the VIN on the rad support?

Just back from a road trip..how did you make out with the measurements?

Awesome photo album with great attention to both original and restored detail - I need to raise the bar. Got some of the emblem, would still be an estimate though. Kind of want to get tape measure detail, lots of other highly usable detail there though. Great work on a great car! Thanks.

Kinda going that way, no trim on the sides, all one color carrying thru rocker panel, didn't like the original medium blue so it's now dark blue flake. The only side markings will be the GTX emblem, otherwise it's the Roadrunner look.

I'll dig up some pics, paint is done, engine and all drive train is in , mufflers ( 12" Magnaflows) are in. August 11 for glass and headliner. Not miles away from second engine start. Hey, I was at Preston Arena Mopar show and did not see one 69 GTX there, maybe it was too hot:angryfire:. Last...
