RE: [Chrysler300] 68 300 rotor question

Thanks for the offer. I do not have the specs on them but they are the Budd
style only front discs used on the C Bodies and Imperials from 66 thru 68.
And I am not absolutely positive that the Imperial is the same. I know the
hub is different as it uses a larger bolt pattern but the rotor itself may
be the same. My car is not accessible at the moment to get any measurements
for you, sorry.

If someone can give me exact interchange, I can probably come up with some
used ones. I have a few buddies who own huge salvage yards. It would help
to have the specs on how thick they need to be also, since many old rotors
are useless from wear.

I'd be willing to make a few calls for y'all if I get some specifics.

That 61 bumper someone needs also.

Sean.
