I have that same moser rear cover saved in my favorites. I need to make sure I can fit it in, and maybe a watts link setup after I get my Boyd's tank installed.

Looks great Larry. I love my wilwoods up front. Do your rears have a parking brake?

The Moser cover is awesome and looks and feels bullet proof Yes the rears have a parking that's what the drum brakes are for in the first pic I posted today. Not sure if I can make them work on mine yet or not because of the 12" wheels.

Thanks Jesse, it is always a great birthday when you can get some truck parts in You can't go wrong with these, a great product and very easy to install. The nice thing with these I used on the back all you remove to change brake pads is the wheel and one big cotter pin
You can actually see the cotter pin in the close up shot I took, pull it and they slide out the top.

Ahhhhh.. I noticed the shoes looked brand new and saw the mounts for the calipers but didn't put two and two together.

Re: 68 project

Decided to tear down the 327 today, I have a bit of clean up to do, a little cleaning and some new gaskets. Well maybe a little bit more than that.
