Re: IML: Please Welcome Geoff Fors

Hi Geoff:

I have recently replaced the brakes and wheel bearings on my 69 LeBaron. I believe that your 67 has the same set up.

New rotors are now available from Durabrake (and come up on e-bay) and rebuilt Budd calipers are avaialble from Calipersonline and Cardone.

 

I purchased the Durabrake rotors and Calipersonline stainless steel sleeved calipers. Everything else was available form the usual suspects (Parts America, NAPA, Autozone).

 

Good luck

Self-Introduction: I rescued my '67 Imperial
just before Christmas, 1979 when I was 22. My
dad worked at the local Chevy dealer and they
had just taken the Imperial in on trade. The
dealer was planning on sending it to the
crusher until several of the salesmen who liked
me convinced him to sell it to me, for $ 200.
It had had a wiring meltdown and none of the
windows or door locks worked. I fixed that and
drove it as my only car for the next 15 years,
during that time converting the heads to run on
unleaded. I'm currently in the process of
doing some long-delayed restoration including
overhauling the transmission and some brake and
suspension upgrades. I wish I had the room for
more cars because I would have many more
Imperials if I did!
