Does that year have regular brakes or the super expensive  Rolls brakes ?

We were going to buy one years ago  and the brake parts were stupid , 

Priced like you were buying parts for a  $100,000 car  and not the $4000 it was....

I wonder if enough parts can be sold to cover the cost of some RWD donor for drivetrain and suspension...

1969 Should be standard stuff ~800$ or so for a full kit not counting distribution valve bodies. Motor being gone is a lot of the money to be made on sales of parts.

Some of Rob's VinWiki stories are interesting but I regret following his instagram because I can only handle so many chrome 20"s on shortbed C10s.
