hi all
I used the supra rotors on my 67 chrysler town
& country and it worked out good.Fore mee it seems like the imperial and
chrysler/dodge/plymouth with budd brakes all use the same rotor,but imperial has
another hub with a different bolt pattern than the the other c
bodys.

You mean 5 x 4.5 ", but that is on the hub and probably does not have
anything to do with the braking disc. Someone in the club said that they did
the Supra rotor conversion for a 1967 (?) Chysler Town and Country. If this is
the case the rotors would have to be very similar between the Chrysler and
Imperial. Still Caveat emptor.
Nick: Could we possible get the specs for the brake discs from the 1967
Chrysler 300?

Hi
nick.
Someone else in the club is keeping track of this. All
communication is published on our mailing list, and if you don't join, you'd
need to work out a way of staying in the loop in this with
them. I am cc'ing the club mailing list in the hopes that the
folks that are running this see it and contact you directly.
Look before you leap - the other Chrysler products had a different
set of lug-holes (5.5 on 5) as far as I know and perhaps different
diameter/offset rotors(?). This could be a serious consideration worth
making up front.
If you do the research and figure out a path on
that, we are trying to boost the number of prepaid orders to get over a
threshold of 50 required to drive the price below $200 per rotor, and I'm
sure that the others would be just fine if you mentioned this to other 300
folks and got them to pile on (just make certain that everyone is clear
about what they will get - IMPERIAL rotors).
Can the folks
spearheading this please contact Nick? Sounds like there's maybe
another avenue to getting over the 50-unit wall.

Hi,
I have a 67 Chrysler 300 convertible. I hear
your club may be interested in reproduction rotors for the Budd disc
brakes.
My car has the Budd disc brakes. I, too,
would be interested. I would prefer to keep my Budd system rather than
change to the 73 Chrysler rotors and calipers as many others have
done.
Please respond and let me know something
about what your club is doing with this.
I visit the Imperial site often and I love
it! But I'm not sure I want to join the listserver as I already
belong to the Chrysler 300 club listserver AND I probably have nothing to
add that would be directly Imperial related.
