Brake replacement
i run a set of scarebird brakes on my 71 and love them
(i will be doing lower ball joins some time this week, so i can snap some pics of the set up then, if you like)
BUT that is my car and i have SBP all around
with your car, if you are going through the hassle of swapping brakes (drums, or disc) i would upgrade to LBP
its NOT that big a deal
and since it sounds like you need a new master cylinder anyway (it sounds like) plan the whole thing out so you get one that matches the brakes you will be getting
