$545 for front discs aint bad.
from there to dallas came to exactly $606.30

The Granada disc brake swap for the fronts work well and you can also install a dual master cylinder with a booster for not too much money.

Granada disc brake swap:

Power booster:

You'd be under $1300 easily.

Make sure to check your suspension (my swap bar links were nearly rusted through)carefully as well as your steering components. Can't be too careful.

Thanks for the info on brakes....like I said, I am new to all of this but anxious to get started. As for the seats, I have no idea what year they are.


At first I wanted to get the exteriror/interior as close to "original" as I could. After reading some magazines and seeing a lot of restomods, i am thinking that I may want to do that to mine. Brakes are first though and immediately after that, a bigger radiator.
