64 restoration.

[Kenyon Wills <imperialist1960@xxxxxxxxx>]

If you're doing the brakes anyway, going to a 67-69 full size Chrysler MC (car must have come with 4 drums from the factory!!) is not much work, but I had to redo the metal brake lines throughout.  Having all new steel and rubber lines all over my car makes me feel really good about being safe.  The single MC is probably just fine, but I plan to drive the heck out of my car and want the added security.  There is a photo of my 1960 with the dual MC on my 1960 epic (see signature).

 

What is the thinking behind a later rear end?  Were they a different ratio?  I had not thought them to be different, but I don't think as much as I should.
