Disc brake conversion kits

Been looking at various disc brake conversion kits for our 67 and think I have narrowed it down to either Wilwood Pro Series or SSBC (which have lots of different kits).

Does any of you guys have any experience with some of the kits in the links here?…

15 inch tire sizes for 67 Newport Custom

Buying new blueline tires for the 15″ Magnum 500 wheels and want to know what sizes can be safely chosen without risking any clearance problems.

-Can 15×8 wheels be used in the front with say 235 tires? (Has 7×15 and 235 now)

-With 15×8 in the rear, what size will fill out the wheel well best w/o rubbing?

-Can say 275/50 be used since the diameter is about equal to 235/60..?

Wheel fitment 67 Newport Custom

So, still looking for another set of wheels to ship over to Norway with the car to have a different look from the Magnum 500s that’s on it now.

15s in 7/8 with is of course…

My wife’s 67 Newport Custom

Hi everybody.

Thought I would start a thread on my wife’s 67 Newport Custom. We live in Norway, but I have been into musclecars for many years, and have also been importing cars for the last 8 years or so.

I bought the 67 together with a 65 New Yorker (both 2 dr ht) 4-5 years ago through my good friend in Michigan who’s a real Mopar expert. Both cars have been sitting there ever since along with my 64 Dodge that’s gonna be built as a Max Wedge race clone when the 67 is done.

When we were…
