Far from complete, and purists will not like it, but the first picture is how i received my car from my dad, last spring, and what it looks like now...

 
Is that rear discs? And why should we not like it? Other then lack of car ****.

I know some dont like bigger wheels and such, thats all. Yup I put 4 wheel power disc brakes in place of the manual drums. More pics to follow this weekend.
 
You are thinking of the SS Chevelle crowd. Here we almost just don't care. I installed a 8.8 with discs in a 66 Barracuda and 15x7 rims. Close enough to stock.
 
Looks nice no reason to keep it stock unless it was original/original found perfect! Otherwise do with it as you please, they are not high value cars so one must make a ride you enjoy and have fun! Mine a 65 formula S is also a work in the making with front disc brakes, 318 that is painted like a 273 with 273 valve covers and air cleaner. Also modern u joint, rally wheels ect!
