I recently bought some DG Rallys from a man in Colorado who just upgraded his ‘67 138 car that he has had since ‘85. He has been really great to deal with and asked me for advice regarding pricing and selling the factory spindles/calipers/rotors he took off (he went with bigger brakes and dropped spindles.). If anyone has an opinion on value range let me know or PM me. I can PM contact info if someone is interested and needs more info.

Do you know what thew Rotors are at? Meaning thickness... .965 is the Minumim thickness your suppose to have. Do the Calipers need to rebuilt? Are the Calipers sleeved? Numbers would help on the set up/ Backing plates straight or bent up?

Lots to ask before putting a value on this set up.

I texted questions to him, will report back. I have closeup detail pics of casting numbers and dates, but the dates are not super legible. The backing plates look great in the pics to me.

He got a micrometer to measure- Rotors measure out at .980” and .981”, backing plates are straight, he’s never sleeved them in the almost 40 years he’s had them but doesn’t know if they were sleeved prior.
