Got the rear window areas just about done---put the rear panel on and window trim---then all that will be left is the front doors. I think that`s about it till after the by-pass surgery on Monday (1:00 PM) .Lee

disk brake conversion rotor from 02 Mountaineer 2wd question
BeBop138 replied to coletrain777's topic in P15-D24 Forum
777---no problem---the bolts center the hub---the bolt pattern is the same and the studs fit right on---the lugs do the rest---94-96 Vic rotors- mid 80`s full size GM calipers--Mustang non-power master (disc-drum)---banjo style brake hoses---MoPar police rims---Diplomat--(I think)--with wheel spacer to clear suspension--(stock) Since the R&P I haven`t checked to see if it`s needed anymore. The bracket is from Scarebird.I have a thread back some time ago----lots of pics---- Very happy with how it turned out.......good luck......Lee -

Not sure if your hub and mine are the same---I used the Crown Vic rotors on mine and they fit like factory---hub centered up good and the the old rivit holes lined up perfectly to the threaded holes on the Vic rotor---put some bolts in and the rotor centered up correctly. -
Father/Son project... Going to pick up the Coupe!

Dad & Lad projects are fun............keep the pics coming and good luck on the build.......Lee -
Finished up under the dash and did some on the rear window area---will go till I run out of time......Lee

Ditto on the Ford---better brakes,parts avaliable,easier to service---go with the disc brakes----you won`t regret it.

Thanks Tim you made my day..........Lee

Got the rest of the floor covered today--really took all week (about 3-4 hours a day). Got to put some on the firewall under the dash and some on the doors---but I will put the rest on hold till I heal up from my surgery. Ya get it all done and it looks good---then ya cover it up with carpet.

My first MoPar was LuLu---1952 Windsor---the closest I got to buying a MoPar when I was a kid was in 69---I almost bought a new Roadrunner---but cash was a problem at 21. Been a GM guy up to getting LuLu. I have restored,hammered,patched at least 30+ cars since I was a kid and LuLu has been a good car---lotsa fun with the old flattie and a good learning experience on MoPars. My first car was a 56 Chevy----after driving and restoring LuLu I have had a new appreciation for the durabilty and engineering that went into these old cars of the day............see ya down the road...............Lee

Looks like Photobucket users will HAVE to transition to new format
BeBop138 replied to BobT-47P15's topic in Off Topic (OT)
They gave me an option to use the old format or new ----or until they give you no option. -
Got the rest of the floor cleaned up and painted it with Bill Hirsch rust paint----got some of the Dynamat down. Slow going since my heart attack---plus on the 19th I go back in for bypass----then nothing gets done for up to 12 weeks---they tell me re-hab might take that long---PITA. I would show pics but the new format has me confused---how do we post pics now???? It took me quite awhile to figure it out the first time---computer skills are lacking.........Lee
