Default Is there any sane way to put discs on 67 Cutlass?

What would be the best way to put discs on the front of a 67 Cutlass without trying to source some kind of 1 of none parts,or buying 13" bling bling brakes? I would be interested in anything that fit under 15" wheels,and even more interested in if it used parts sourced from OEM applications,especially if it didnt involve cutting or welding factory parts. So is there a way? Thanks.

Maybe one of these kits would work?

Any setup including spindles from 70-72 A body and Nova will work.

That is what these kits are based on.

----Rich,,,67 Cutlasses were available with a disc-brake option. I believe Inline Tube stocks every piece you need for the conversion. The 67 option had Corvette style calipers but I think you can buy all the stuff from Inline to convert to a 69 style set-up as well. Give them a call. Cant hurt!.....Bill S

O.K.,thats a little better,because I heard that the 68 and later stuff was totally different in every way. Not that the stuff is easy to find,but at least if I find the spindles,I can get the rotors and calipers from a local parts store. Of course I would want a correct dual master for the disc brake application,I would run a dual master even if I kept stock drums,the single pot is scary.

Both those kits are excellent,the 2nd one has a price that is probably cheaper then buying half the parts seperatly. Thanks.
