[FWDLK] Early "Disc" brakes on Crown Imperial



This may be off topic and if it is, I apologize.

I found a book in my 'library', titled "Plymouth and Chrysler-built cars Complete Owner's Handbook of Repair and Maintenance" published by Floyd Cramer in 1955.  In the Brake section, it describes the typical expanding shoe brakes and "The Chrysler Disc brake as used on the Crown Imperial..."

Out of curiosity, does anybody have experience with these?  From the description and diagrams in the book, the design is intriguing for the era, but complicated.

Thanks,
Dave Moore
