 Subject : IML: 1967-69 Budd Calipers available soon

I will ship Budd caliper cores to the CALIPERS ONLINE

fellow in the coming weeks.  That would be in Q1 of

07.  They will likely be available thereafter (summer

'07?).



This company uses a stainless sleeve and asserts that

quality is consequently much higher than the products

of firms such as Cardone, who do not use SS sleeves

and just rehab/reseal the parts.  I'd feel better with

stainless - can't rot or pit...



If you have a 67-69 Imperial, hindsight indicates that

having a spare set of calipers, rotors, and at least

one set of brake pads squirreled away is a good

practice.  You may not need them today, but it appears

that there will always be a market for them should you

regret your decision.



I encourage the folks that were tempted by the

DuraBrake repro rotors to consider placing an order or

getting in line with the Calipers Online company. 

This will reward the vendor for bothering with an

otherwise unobtainable part, and may save your bacon

later.  



Please mention the Imperial Club so that he knows

who's being loyal to him.



I was surprised to learn that the guy has been

actively looking for them on eBay - a redeeming

quality regarding this part for our car.  He also

mentioned that they came on AMX's and one or two other

cars.  He said that he's got a $400 core charge to

"encourage" reurn of the cores, since they're so

scarce, so be prepared on that point.
