I see your from detroit, I'm west of ann arbor in grass lake. as far as disc conversion, I'm still not quite decided yet is around 1000 bucks i do have the larger drum and there are complete. , wasn't planning on driving it enough to heat up the old drums, plus mine still has the left handed threads on the drivers side lug bolts. I'm leaning on originality, what I've seen in watching ebay and craigslist for the last 6 years(took me 5 years to find mine) originals get better returns when they sell, I had a barracuda i was never planning on selling, but the 2008 crash took care of that. So I'm kinda following that just in case, trying to keep the cost of the resto near the value of it complete, that means using alot of the original stuff and doing most of the work. I have a resto thread also you can check out, updating it today. good luck, post some pics that u have it would be nice to see that i'm not the only one with high ambitions.
