Brake rotors are a problem for these cars, since they
don't make them anymore.  You have a few options:

-Find a used set, in better shape than yours (try a
junkyard, scout eBay, have patience)

-Buy NOS rotors from Frank Mitchell (last I heard,
they were going for $200 a piece)

-Try to track down a company on the east cost (I
beleive in PA or NC) that was going to be recasting
these rotors

-Get some $40 a pair rotors for an '88 Toyota Supra
(the front ones) and make the necessary mods to get
them to fit.  The how-to can be found on the IML
website, under the '67/'68 pages.  I performed the
conversion and wrote up the how-to a few years back,
and the results were quite good.

As for calipers, I believe you can get them from A-1
Cardone, via www.partsamerica.com or possibly some
other places.
