I was curious to see what the 17" "Heritage-series" Mach 1 wheel would look like on my '68, since I've adapted the Cobra-style front brakes to the Granada spindles.

I barrowed this wheel off my '03 Mach 1.

the cobra disc brake conversion works with granada spindles? i thought you had to run stock /drum spindles from your original year.

I designed some adapter brackets and had a machine shop make the brackets so I could adapt the Cobra brakes onto my Granada spindles on my '68.
