Knowing the thread willonly get you a generic replacement that will not look anything like the originals. I'm assuming Bob is going for a total factory restoration so is wanting exact OEM parts.
Having said that do you have a pic of the bleeder screw? I have the OEM calipers from my 68...
You can pull a set of 11x2.5 rear drum assemblies from from pretty much any mid 70's to 90's mopar, dodge ram, van etc. They all pretty much used the same backing plates so just remove the bolts, e-brake cables and swap them onto your car. I used to grab complete sets from the wreckers for...
A friend sent me a link to an E-bay seller who had some Delco NOS old stock kits....so I ordered 3 kits from them, so I'll have a spare set just in case. ;)
Thank you everyone for the help, suggestions and offers...very much appreciated!
Well rockauto only had one kit remaining when I got there to order them...so one is on the way. I'll see what I can find for another kit.
But @Stanton I'll take those seals you have...Thank you...PM sent!
Edit: Your inbox is full....
Wow thank you so much for the offer...really appreciate it! I see rockauto has got restock on the seal kits so I'll be ordering those today, but if anything goes awry I'll send you a PM. :thumbsup:
I can't recall what was actually done to them when i had them restored 25 years ago...I know they were not cheap to redo...think they either sleeved them in stainless, or had stainless pistons machined?? Guess I'll find out when I pull them apart. If the pistons and bores are still good then...
Got the coronet into the shop yesterday and up on the lift to check things out...turns out I not only have a leaky master cylinder but the pass side 4 piston brake caliper is leaking fluid as well. I've been searching high and low since yesterday and can't find anyone who has the Centric...
Yes and no...the 68 is the same basic design as the 66/67 but not quite as fancy IMO.
For comparison....pics stolen from Ebay auctions....
66/67...

Thanks I did see those...but I'm up in Northern Canada and by the time I paid exchange, shipping and handling and all the particulars to build the rims I'd be into 4 steel rims for over $2000 I bet!
I'm a huge fan of steel rims and dog dish caps, but not sure yet if I'm going to go this route on my 68 Coronet 500 convertible but would like to have a set of 4 stainless steel 9" dog dish caps if I do decide that is the look I want. Looking for nice clean driver quality with no major dents or...
Still on the hunt for a 1971 Superbee, no clones of tribute cars, only interested in a true WM23 Vin car.
Now the specifics as this is my dream car...
I'm looking for a car in GF7 green, this is my preferred color but might consider a car that was originally built in this colour but has been...
So I've decided since I'm looking for my dream car I'm going to be a bit more picky about what I'm willing to purchase.
My dream car is a 1971 Superbee in GF7 Dark Green Metallic, 383 or 340, other options are not too important.
Car must have a clear title in sellers hand, WM23 VIN and...
I know you said the car is B5 Blue now but originally a red car so that would be a deal breaker for me. I appreciate the information about the car though, but I have a few colors that I am really not interested in, most of the High Impact colors in Yellow, Orange and Red just don't appeal to me. ;)
Looking for a 71 Superbee, must be a WM23 VIN. Looking for a mostly rust free and complete project car, clean daily driver or maybe older resto showing it's age, or perhaps a nicely restored car.
Options I would love on the car are a N96 Ramcharger hood, head away headlights, or Elastomeric...
